First let me say that each day had a Tribal Council which featured Camp Skits, Musical Worship and a message from the week’s speaker. Campers heard the word and it was good. God be praised.

Day 1
We started both camps with the Vintage Free Family Barbecue both put the adventure spin by adding Epic Adventure Music from the likes of Gladiator and Lord of the Rings.
After Krispy Kreme and a Prayer, Kampers were loaded immediately onto buses to go white water rafting.

Rafting was a Great Adventure. Jr. Highers had the added honor to watch their counselors and yours truly be used as “paddle meat” to test Husum falls, the 14 footer, THREE times. Soka’s Raft flipped…it was full of guides... we are all OK, so don't worry, seriously.
Day 2
Today was a day for building the tribes together, using appropriate camping methods ie. Low and High Ropes Course. Beautiful
Day 3
Thus began the Adventure known as the hike. We traversed beautiful terrain and crossed with ease whatever got in our way. We eventually found our path end at a camp site and ate well made backpacking food.

Day 4
We hiked out of the woods, passing four naturally elegant waterfalls, and don’t forget more good food and a little dip in a very cold creek and then off to Cave Creek Camp where a meat dinner found us but with no utensils. Beautiful

Day 5
Let me tell you this was the best day of camp to be sure. An early morning greeted all around the mud pit where the Chief of the Dunadain, Stonewall (Program Director) roused us all with a battle speech to be documented with the Greats.


Mud pit games ensued bringing a beginning to the Eco Challenge that was not for the faint of heart or the weak, but you can be confident that all who participated, did so with all vigor and endurance, developing and stretching the warrior spirit they never knew they had.





Dinner followed…meat… and showers finally followed.
We had a Tribal council when the adventure was done only to be told that our lives are The Hunt not just this week and that we should be living our lives like it is. There was an invitation into The Hunt and several campers gave their lives to Our Savior Jesus Christ.
Day 6
Water and field games highlighted this day including ultimate Frisbee with a twist.

The Dunadain flag was signed by the victors of the Eco challenge during our last tribal council


Our adventurous campers were then reunited with their parents, none unchanged.
Well that is all, I hope you were enlightened. Look at campjonah.com for more summer pictures soon.
Don't miss next year
And don’t forget… THIS IS THE HUNT!
