Girls on Trip, Boys in MAN CAMP.

With all of the girls packed up and ready to leave on their wilderness trips, it's time for MAN CAMP. While we keep the finer details of MAN CAMP for the guys, we can tell you that it's just a fun night filled with build-your-own pizzas, a rowdy game of Outpost, and a big huge bonfire. 

We caught a couple of our girls' cabins packing out - they were having a blast!

Over the weekend, Advance Campers kept busy with big group games like relays, tag, and other fun activities.

HRC Loves Activities!

What do campers spend the most time doing in a day, besides sleeping?

Activities. From archery to mountain biking to ceramics and more, most  spend about 4 hours a day learning various skills in their time dedicated to activities.

The challenge of exploring a new activity and learning through the Basic, Intermediate, and Masters process provides an opportunity for a unique integration of faith and learning. We believe that the time dedicated to activities not only enables campers to learn a new skill, but that it also gives a sense of accomplishment and builds confidence – developing body, mind, and spirit.

Chentell, Ceramics Instructor ’12, teaches a cabin of boys about throwing technique

Our Activity Staff arrived just over a week ago. After team-building initiatives and introductory training, the staff has been handed keys and given full access to their areas. In this time, instructors learn the finer elements of their activity, from climbing difficult routes to perfecting barefooting technique to making a wet wood fire and more.

This morning, while SLS and AMP are in class at HoneyRock, Activity Staff will finish up Lifeguard Training. Then, all SLS and Service Team counselors will join Activity Staff in the pool for Water Safety!
