2009 - In Their Own Words

 

One of the last activities of camp is to ask the campers what they liked about camp.  each camper diligently wrote down what were their favorite parts of camp.  Some of the campers' responses are below: 

[girl camper] I like Royal Family Kids Camp because you get to know more people and you get to have a better relationship with the Lord and plus you don’t have to be embarrassed because most of the kids have gone through what you have gone through so you can have a better relationship with the kids too. Plus your counselors are the best and they understand you, laugh with you, and they love you. I love the food!!! I also love J-zone and Breakfast Club because of Maaartha and Kid Roayle. That is why I like Royal Family Kids camp!!!

 

[boy camper] I like playing with basketball and singing in chapel. I like painting faces, friends, swimming, fishing, kicking the ball, and dancing. Tom is my best friends. Royal Family Kids Camp ROCK!

[girl camper] The reason I like Royal Family Kids Camp is because I am in the best place in the world. This is the best place in the country and everyone cares for me.

[boy camper] I like camp because we get to go and fish in the lake. I enjoyed doing the Polar Bear swim. Furthermore, I enjoyed having dinner, breakfast, and lunch. I really enjoyed the jumping house. I liked to not steal and not take stuff from others and having fun without being mean. I leanred that God loves us and He tries to help us.

[ girl camper]  I like the polar bear club swim and I like the counselor I got. I really lie the zipline. I like my room and all the stuff I got. I like the signs I got when I first came off the bus. I like all the activities there are. I like the people in my cabin and I like how they’re not all bossy… and there’s a bunch more reasons I like camp too.

[boy camper]  I really liked building things, swimming, the zipline, breakfast club, archery, and the birthday party. I liked fishing too.

[girl camper] I really like the zipline and the high heels. I like all the presents because they are cute. I like to play all the activities. I don’t like mean people, I only like nice people and everyone here is really nice. I like the food its yummy. The birdhouse Uncle Bryon made and I go tot paint it. I liked seeing all my friends from foster care. I like Katie’s bedtime stories when I’m the princess.

[boy camper]  I like camp because it’s fun. I like the zip line. The bow and arrow target is fun. And building and swimming and the bounce house. Something I like is listening to the staff and listening to CJ. And living to the Spirit and God and Jesus.

[girl camper] I have always loved Royal Family Kids Camp because I have always had fun here! I love LOVE the zipline because it goes fast. I like face painting and make it like make-up with lipstick and eyeshadow! I also like dress-up and I love J-Zone and all the songs. I also like Kid Royale. Just to tell you I am saving the best for last and it is so cool! I love crafts and activities and also when we sing on stage.

[boy camper] I liked the zipline because you can slide down the line and it’s just really fun. Archery because I short Bambi on accident. And I liked the ropes course because it takes practice. CJ is a cool guy and the nicest man.

We are thankful that we have been given the opportunity the work with these children and are looking forward to another successful camp next year.
