' - • | Off to Camp! > \ One hundred s£d twenty-five youngsters of Northeastern Illinois experienced their first night In camp Sunday, July 3. Th*v arrived at the Long Lake Bible camp with high expectations and they will not be disappointed. Among the group was our own Sue Ann Stinesprlng. She will have a lot to tell her parenta and friends when she gets back home Saturday afternoon. This year the catrip theme is "Making Friends Around the World!" Your pastor Is teaching one group and we are learning how we can better understand our "Neighbors" to the south of us, Mexico. The day officially begins at 7: (w, but this morning (Monday) it started at 6:00. Breakfast at 8:15. As%embly at 9:00. Classes from 9:30 until 11:30. At 11:30 everyone has, a rest period and at 1:15 the dinner bell rings and jsome hungry. children are on band I for "chow." The bank opens at 1:15 as each child has deposited his money . with the banker and must write a j check for the amount he wishes ! to use for his craftwork, eats or jboatrides. Prom 2:00 until 3:00 everyone has his shoes off and letters are written, handcraft worked on, or naps taken--it is truly a quiet hour. From 3:00 until 6:00 we take turns, half the group studies while the other half swims. At 5:00 swimming and classes are over for the day. Again at 6:00 the bell rings and the campers must pass the inspector at the door to see if hands and faces are clean and hair combed.- Appetites are good though we do wonder how they find time to eat with all the talking that is going on. At 7:00 we divide up for games and at 7:30 we meet for the high point qf the day--our worship service. We sit facing the west watching; |the sun go down and turn our! thoughts to God and the many gifts he has given us. Following this l\pur~ we see moving pictures on the" general themes of our \ studies and at 9:00 we are back1 in our cabrns bound for bed. j Each cab\ 'J tis its devotions' and 9:30 the camp is supposed! to bte Quiet. Sunday evenihg this! was not true but you may rest I assured that after ithe above schedule it will be quiet hereafter, j I Such is a day at camp. It is an i experience that will not be for- i gotten and many will seek to du-i plicate during the following years. * Our prayer for each camper is, I "May God richly bless you and i lead you to make many ne'lr friends."
