Camp Three: Sewanee Trip

We always take a trip into our neighbor town, Sewanee, to visit the University of the South campus. For Camp Three, we also included a picnic dinner. We got to Sewanee, went in the bookstore so the kids could get little things, and then sat out on the lawn for a picnic. Afterwards, we went into Sewanee's chapel, All Saints, for an Easter Vigil service. Wednesday of our chapel program was Holy Week and Thursday is Easter, so a condensed Easter Vigil was perfect for the Wednesday night service. 

After our service, we went to the War Memorial Cross at Sewanee that has a gorgeous overlook. We sang lots of songs!

A little explanation for above: at All Saints there is a seal in the entrance and you are not to step on it, so we make a big deal of it and put "guards" there.
