Summer Camp and Roaring River

Hi all! Yesterday we experienced our second full day of the AOC Summer Camp and we're all starting to get into the swing of things. We love the kids here so much and they never fail to welcome us as soon as we arrive for the day. There are three groups of kids separated into kiddies, juniors, and seniors so we've all been experiencing each group as much as we can and they're all very happy to have us. For part of the day they have a lesson and complete school work based upon the lesson, then we break for lunch which usually consists of delicious curry chicken and rice, and the rest of the day is fun and games. Some games include Simon Says, Mother May I, and soccer. After our day at the camp we decided to go to Roaring River for the second time (it was a scorcher)! Upon arriving at the river there was already a ton of people there having a party. Many of us jumped off the bridge again to cool off which felt amazing after our long day at camp. The people hanging out at the river were starting to get wild, blasting their loud rasta music which always makes for a fun experience. Yesterday we also had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Hildebrandt and her son Noah, our new additions to the group! They will be spending the next week with us here in Petersfield. Sadly, Dr. Swauger and Ben will be leaving us but we'll never forget the one week we've experienced with them, it was all so amazing!

Back to camp!
