Summer camps

How many people here go to summer camps? Which ones?

I do summer Bible Bee! :)

We attend the Bible Bee, a local string camp, and the Students Statesmanship Institute (ssi-online.org). The latter camp is basically a leadership camp right here in Michigan, focusing specifically on biblical worldviews and the way our country works. It's a blast, and you really have to be there to know what I'm talking about.

I usually go to Seneca Hills Bible Camp, but this year I am going to Worldview Academy.

Yeah I knew u went to seneca but that's awesome!

So it's practically settled that I'm going to Pine Springs Camp this summer!!! So it's my first time going to camp or any were from my family for almost a week, any advice?? :) I'm so excited!

Yeah me and my little brother r going the same week, so I'll see him at meals and stuff!

I'll be going to my first summer camp this year. It's called iGovern, run by Generation Joshua (which is a division of the Home School Legal Defense Association).

Basically, iGovern has a mock legislature and presidential campaign, as well as leadership classes, chapel times, and more.

If you're going to iGovern as well, let me know! It would be great to meet some of you there. I'm going to iGovern East in Washington, DC.

Wow that sounds fun! R u a Gen J member? Me and my little brother are!

What age does Generation Joshua stop?

@Elanee: Generation Joshua is for teenagers 11-19.

For the iGovern camps though I believe it is 17 for iGovern East and 18 for iGovern West. Not positive though.

If/when u have kids u can be an adult sponsor though! :) lol

Is anyone else going to Worldview Academy this summer?

@leah - that is SO cool! :)

Leah- That is SO neat! :) Are you volunteering or something?

I just got home from a week of Bible camp, my first time ever going to a summer camp.

What did u think?

Horse-flys being the worst part, and mosquitos the second worst. I don't know what I liked best. It was fun, and I got to work, and we got to fly there. Swimming in the Yukon was fun, and real cold. We had salmon eggs, and salmon heads for lunch yesterday. yum, I heard that they got to have the rest of the salmon (the fillets, or steaks or meat..) for dinner.

Lol :) sounds……… Fun! :) LOL

Don't worry Danielle. You probably won't have that for your meals. :)

Blech! This is why I don't go to summer camp.
Of course, it couldn't also be that the only summer camp I know of around here is for Boy Scouts…and I am certainly not a Boy Scout!

Actually when I went to summer camp, we had the best food ever! There were burgers, hot dogs, tacos, chili, Chinese, etc. Even when the power went out last year we still had pizza for lunch.

Okay. Now I'd like to go to summer camp!
But this year I'm doing drama club and writing club so I probably wouldn't have been able to do it anyway. :-(

Lol yeah I know my little brother already made my oldest brother to through their whole menu. :P :)

Hey guys, I just came back from Worldview Academy, and it was awesome! Here's a video of what we did there, and what it is all about. Enjoy!

BTW, the video ends at about 7 minutes 11 seconds, not 9 minutes 17 seconds like it says. Oh, I almost forgot! Can you spot me? :D

It won't let me watch it on my IPod. :(

Is anyone going to summer camp in 2014?

I'm going to a summer camp.

Okay. Do you know when it is?

Franklin, PA. It's in the northern part of the state. After going to Worldview I was torn between going back to it or to the other camp that I'm going to next year. I have some friends up at the other camp that won't be there in two years however because they are a year older than me. Everyone I made friends with at Worldview was 16. Also I would highly recommend Worldview to anyone who would like to strengthen their's.

Okay.

I'm going to get down on my knees and beg and weep for my mom to let me go to Pine Spring again this year. Lol jk (kinda..) It was the best week of my life. Ever. Hands down.
@Carissa - r u thinking of going to a summer camp??

You decided! :)

Maybe. I might go to the Scripture Memory Fellowship camp in Louisiana.

Yup I decided. :)
