Camp Hopewell Adventure


Bhakti is on the 75 foot climbing wall, below. Anjli is on the 50 foot catwalk to the right.
GIRL POWER!!!!








Far left Samuel is demonstrating the great power and strength it takes to climb "LIFE". Keaten is showing his inner-monkey on the "Two Line". To the right the girls are getting ready to climb!

The boys are looking tough as they prepare to tackle the ropes challenges that lay ahead.







Below, Ashton is breaking his concentration just long enough to smile for a picture. I guess he decided "the Grid" is easy.
To the left, Max, Samuel, Karly, and Bhakti are balancing a 2,000 lb board. They must keep it balanced as everyone sings "John Jacob Jinglehimer Smith", then they can add a person, sing the song again, and repeat. The goal is to get the whole class on the board and sing. The class was successful! They could tell you why and tips on how to be beat this challenge as a team.
Below, Keaten and Bhakti are leading the blind through the woods. Nobody fell or got hurt. I would say they are succesful leaders. Then they had to carry Karly using the hula-hoop and not breaking the bond.




To the left, Samuel is helping Jay get the hoop around him. The challenge is to get the hula hoop all the way around the group as fast as they can. Twenty-five seconds is the record for this quick thinking group.


All the students enjoyed every challenge. Even the teachers participated in the 75 feet climbing wall. All in all, it was an eventful, tiring, exciting day.
