Year Four and staff set out for Log Cabin camp on a rainy morning in early March. This did not deter the great excitement about going to camp for three days. The anticipation of activities and challenges to come was high. We knew this would be a great opportunity to challenge ourselves with new experiences and to form stronger friendships.
We stayed at the Log Cabin Homestead. Camp staff greeted us and in no time at all, we were off to our first adventures on the Giant Swing and searching throughout the beautiful bush setting on the Scavenger Hunt. Each day was action packed with canoeing on the dam, the flying fox, orienteering, milk crate stacking, archery, hut building and cooking damper in the campfire. In between these activities, there was free time in the games room (billiards, table tennis or giant line up four) or outside with Gaga ball, trampoline, ball games or space to play tag.
Even night times were a highlight! The night walk in misty rain through the pine plantation testing our torches, Mr P leading Devotions and sharing about Esther’s courage, singing along to songs with Miss O playing her guitar, cooking marshmallows over the campfire, prayer time and sleeping in cabins. The food was also plentiful and delicious, including dessert!
The anticipation of a fun-filled and adventurous camp lived up to expectations. When you want to do all those activities again, that is a sure sign of a very successful camp.
