Church Camp can be such a GREAT place to make lots of memories and friends. Up until my freshman year, I LOVED to go until a counselor ruined it for me and I never went back. Growing up I went to a large church and so I never experienced going with other churches. This camp week hosted Wilshire, North Mac, and South Yukon along with several small churches from around Oklahoma. Chloe has gone to camp the last 2 years on her own. This year was Allie's first year and I won't lie I was really nervous to let her go because she just did not seem big enough to be gone from me that long without being with family. When our youth minister asked if I wanted to be a counselor I told him I would have to talk to my girls and after some tears from Allie they said I could go as long as I was not their counselor. I ended up being in the 11th grade girls cabin which was GREAT!! There were 3 counselors and we had 11 girls. 
There was minimal drama and a lot of giggles and straightening of hair. We focused on Romans 1:16 for the week and being UNASHAMED. We were at camp from Sunday-Friday morning and our days lasted 8:30-10:30 p.m. our day included:
- Bell Tower Devo
- Breakfast
- Cabin Clean up
- Bible Class
- Sports
- Worship
- Lunch
- Nap time
- Class
- Team Boat Building (we were given 3 rolls of duck tape and cardboard and each team had to construct a boat that we raced on Friday.)
- Recreation/Nap/Me Elizabeth & Tori giggle and bonding time
- Dinner
- Worship
- Entertainment
- Starlight Devo
I had a great week getting to know the Wilshire girls better but I wont lie... my favorite part of the week was watching Allie have her first camp experience from a distance. SHE HAD SO MUCH FUN! She even told me it was "THE MOST FUN SHE HAS EVER HAD IN HER WHOLE LIFE!"
