Day One - Fish On

Buddies waiting for the arrival of the campers

This year the RFK Boise camp  is pleased to be hosting one of its all-time largest camps.  It now takes two Greyhound buses to transport our group of campers.  Welcome signs were made and the red carpet was rolled out in eager anticipation of the campers’ arrival.

Welcome signs are a work of art 

                                                               

                                                                    

Once the bus arrived and the campers had their lunch, it was off  to the activity center. The campers got their first crack at the fishing pond, and they were not disappointed. Fish were practically jumping on to the hooks, as the campers reeled them in.

The camp artists were in full swing as well taking advantage of the spin art booth, woodworking and face painting.

Many Masterpieces were created today.

Bedtime Story for the Campers 

Each night, the camp grandpa and grandma read a bedtime story to the campers. This year’s book is Bob the Bird, a book base on Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 6:25-26. Although life can be difficult, all creatures can live in the reality of God’s love. The children look forward to hearing from grandpa and grandma each night as they wind down the day. Time to get some rest, we have a big day ahead of us tomorrow.
