Day 2 Pioneer's of today

one of the last games was to get all on a pallet this picture is of 20 yuoth on the pallet

This one is when Ron swung over to make it 21 on the pallet at once. Them we had lunch before we did water time and boat building. The boats were made with cardboard and duck tape and then covered with plastic. and they had to carry two people for 1 min. it was fun . We started with an awsome breakfast. We ate much better than the pioneers.The day was filled with team building games. and the kids had lots of fun and learned to solve problems and work together. I have a few pics below. they had to keep moving as the person crawled across the pipes to make it across the patio.
They were duck taped and had to race to the end with out their feet coming off or riped apart.
all were tied at the ankles and had to go thru the hopes and around two times 1/2 of each team was blidfolded and had to get dirrections from those not blidfolded to play soccer. They also played games that involved problem solving a team ropes corse .

After dinner we had free time and the adults played frisbee golf while waiting for the guest speaker to arive. Candice 20years old told of her story and how she overcame her drug addiction. and her conversion. then we had our testimony meeting. Ron left so he could work the rest of the week. I stayed up with the kids. We talked and got to know more about each othe r and cooked marshmellows. Even told some stories. the y decided the were ready to go to bed arond 11:30 or so.
Day 3 was breakfast packing up and a service project of painting tables. and we arrived home aroundnoon. Shower and a napand I felt like a new penny!
