Thursday Night's Campfire

Thursday night is a very important night at camp. We all know that it is the last night at camp, therefore we all get very emotional. We all have stories to tell and stories to laugh at. Stories that mean so much to all of us and stories that can really explain what camp means to all of us. We can share our testimonies with each others and explain how camp has helped us to become stronger with God. We also talk about the friends that we have made through camp and how they have impacted our lives so much. This usually leads to A LOT of tears. It is beyond a blessing to have the people from camp in our lives, because they will help you through anything and they are always willing to talk. They are some of the best people that I have in my life today. During the campfire we also have s'mores, and everyone loves s'mores. We kinda go crazy when it comes to the chocolate and the marshmallows. The campers are the ones who love roasting all the marshmallows and giving them to the staff. We all love the fact of being together for a week, then getting to sit around a fire and share all the great memories we have from the week and all the previous years at camp. It is truly a blessing to be able to experience this week with all the wonderful people that you go to camp with. We always sing songs together and we have a lot of fun. It is one of the best nights at camp. It's something that you cannot forget. After the campfire, which usually lasts until about 12, we go up to our cabins. We love the fact that the next morning we get to sleep in until 9. We always have the best times at camp and we would not trade them for the world. Last year was my last year of being a camper, along with Mary Beth, Tamra, Ryan, Tyler, Elizabeth, and Alexis. We have had some of the best campfire memories together, and it is a feeling that you cannot explain. It's kinda like a "you just had to be there moment". We all love camp and hope to be the staff one day, so that campers can make our s'mores someday and share their great experiences with us. :)
