While in the mess hall watching the campers play Bible trivia, I noticed that a lot of them were stumped on who touched the ark of the covenant and died. As I was walking past one of the tables, one of the younger campers figured out who it was, and this was her answer: “Usher! Put down Usher!” 😉
The ones that humor us all at night with skits. The ones that keep track of sports scores. The ones that watch the campers to make sure everything’s okay. The ones that stand in the heat all day for the campers’ sake. Those are the compadres! Let them know how much you appreciate their role in helping the campers by…
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, dear Molly, happy birthday to you! Welcome to the double-digit club, Molly! We’re glad that you chose to spend your birthday with us here at MSC!
Today all of our campers enjoyed another great lunch! They had chicken nuggets, breadsticks, and fruit. Here’s a picture of them enjoying lunch.
All of our campers are participating in the same events as yesterday, so I won’t go through them all again, but here are a few pictures of some campers enjoying themselves. We have James Sturgis playing with a hula hoop during concession time. Victoria and Brooklyn playing cards during concession time. Then Donovan Bale drinking out of his basketball water…

This morning, Danny Elkins led us in a study of our daily theme, developing good habits.

We thought that everyone was in bed, but apparently some cabins had other plans. Boy Cabins 10 and 11 decided to have themselves a “cabin war” in which they launched water balloons and silly string at each other on the upper sports field. Here’s a picture of the chaos that ensued.
Now that dinner is over, our mystery game has been played, and our wonderful Compadres and floaters have humored us with silly acts, it’s time to say goodnight. The campers are heading back to their cabins to prepare for their nightly devotionals before catching a few hours of shut-eye in preparation for the exciting day ahead tomorrow. Goodnight to…
Tonight the directors had a surprise up their sleeves for all of the campers–a game that has never been played here at MSC before. You start by putting a giant inflatable ball in the middle of the soccer field and have a team start on each end. When the whistle is blown, you must run to the ball and…
After a day without any team standings, it’s time that we announce our top 3 teams. Royal Blue managed to win the sportsmanship award for the day, but sadly it just wasn’t enough points to carry them into the top 3. In third place we have Ice Blue! In second place we have the Purple Pirates! And in first…
