Camp Activities - Action Shots

So many things to do, and I am only here for how many weeks?  That is just not enough!  Every year I attended camp, I was there for 8 weeks.  It was rough at first, but there were so many options for things to do that I quickly thought of camp as home.

​

These are some pictures of various activities at the camp.
