It's no secret that one of my favorite places in the world is East Iowa Bible Camp. It's where I spend a week every summer from 6th grade all through high school. In college I had the honor of spending two whole summers there working as a counselor and I loved it. I have often said that camp is like an addiction, the more I am there the more I want to be there. SO you can probably guess my excitement when I found out that this year's high school winter retreat was being held over my Christmas break from school! I have never been to an EIBC winter retreat! So over break I called up Tyson, the director, and asked to come help out for three days. It was such a blast. There were only 14 kids so it was easy to play a large group game, such as celebrity or telephone dictionary. We also had a lot of fun playing Wii karaoke and rock-band. I also got to spend the weekend with two of my camp friends, Jeremy and Sarah Risdon. On top of that I got to see Tyson and Sarah and the Berbs. If you are reading this and have kids I highly recommend that you send them this summer to EIBC. It holds some of my favorite memories and I met people who to this day are some of my best friends. It is a place of learning and fun and acceptance and of focusing on Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Love from Liberty,
Peggy
