It's been a week since camp ended and I am back to 100% health. Time to close out this blog with a few final thoughts.
Camp excelled my expectations - I learnt much more than I thought I would, kitchen work wasn't as hard as I was told and fellowship way surpassed my hopes. However, it's easy to be enthused after such an event and the hard part is keeping up the momentum in applying what I learnt and maintaining the friendships.
Likewise for the campers, my hope is that they too will keep the flame of PYC alive. I hope the counselors will keep in touch with each camper in their dorm throughout the year to encourage them to work on goals set during camp. I hope the campers will continue communicating with each other after camp and not let it die out after the Feast or even before. I hope to recognize some names of campers in those accepted to HWAC in 2012. I hope I do my part by continuing to pray for each camper by name during the year.
Grateful thanks to our Heavenly Father and Mr Flurry for making camp possible. To Mr & Mrs Turgeon and Mr & Mrs Burns for all their tremendous hard work and dedication to our teens and to all the other organizers.
I hope this blog has encouraged others to take some time out be a worker next year. You just might find it a life-changing experience.
