Camp Fircom 2014

Camp Fircom

This year we went to Camp Fircom. I was really excited because last year it was struck by lightning and we weren't able go. We had to ride on a water ferry to get to camp, Camp Fircom is on Gambier Island. Once we got there I was really excited because they had a really nice garden and there was lots of space for activities. The cabins were nice and fun because instead of having a few people in room like last year it was one big room that let everyone to talk and have more fun together. The food was really good especially because it was fresh and healthy, it came straight from the garden. There were many activities that we had there were very fun. Many were the same as the last camp and a few newer things like paddle-boarding and hiking. Also it was fun we got to play frisbee with glow in the dark frisbees, there were other activities like the night-hike, blackberry picking, and the campfire. One really memorable time was were we the firelight project, it was a fun way to talk and get to know people better. The only thing about camp that wasn't as fun was the hike. We had to hike for nearly 4 hours and I got a lot of cuts and mosquito bites. Although after we got to the top it felt good we had to all the way back down it was really slippery and steep. It was a long and steep challenge but in the end I was happy that I did it. Overall, camp was really fun and I have learn new thing and also re-learned things. I can't wait for the next camp!
