Camp 2 Arrives!

Camp 2 is here and we are so excited to have them! Since the moment they stepped off the bus we have been going 24/7 with so many new and old faces! 
After registration was squared away and everyone had safely arrived, we took our swim test. Don't worry parents, everyone passed and now we can just enjoy the pool! 

Our traditional first night dinner of spaghetti was delicious as always- and we celebrated Jackson Hays' birthday! (Because really, the best way to celebrate a birthday is at camp!) We're so glad we got to celebrate you today Jackson!

After dinner we went to our opening Eucharist. Father Battle Beasley of Antioch joined us and led us in a renewal of our Baptismal Covenant. He walked around with an aspergillum (a device to disperse holy water on people- we used a pine tree branch) and gave us all a little living water to start the week! 


Next we had to introduce our staff and go over our CGM Covenant- aka our rules. To introduce ourselves, the staff put on a little skit. We had a lot of fun being silly while telling our campers a little bit about us! 

We finished up the night with a round of capture the flag and a snack and went to bed! Thanks so much for following us at CGM! We will keep you updated!
