Tonight's night game was fun. I got even a bit more creative than usual and decided to come up with a costume to chase the kids around with. I dressed in all black and rubbed mud all over my legs, arms and face, then stuck a rhubarb leaf straight out of my headband. I grabbed handfuls of grass and shoved them behind my headband as well so it was sticking out to the sides then had some dangling in front of my face as if I were peering straight out of a bush. I also shrieked like a... wild animal, let's say. The kids were each given a ticket and they had to find the professor, who was dressed in a trenchcoat, and hiding in an unknown position in the camp. Once they found him and showed him their ticket they were allowed a quick glimpse at the molecule. After trying to memorize the design, they had to go back with their teams and try to re-create it. My job, as well as other staff, was to catch them and steal their tickets before they found the professor. It was a sweet game. I felt kinda barbaric, actually.
Camp is still going really well. I somehow am still enthusiastic, after a month and a half of trying to teach, lead, walk alongside and encourage kids who can be unwilling, trying, and stubborn at times. I still am unsure about which position I will fill during the summer, or if I'll even be at Winkler Bible Camp. I am really enjoying spring staff but I am having a hard time trying to picture myself in the role of counselor here for the fifth summer in a row. I have loved doing my one-on-one counseling role with special needs kids that come to camp, but I feel as if God may be calling me elsewhere this summer. Please pray that the Holy Spirit would guide me as I search for His calling regarding the next few months. Thanks!
