Tuesday was a great day at Camp Tallowood.  We had another awesome day of rec, tribal time, and lots of really good food.  During our morning worship time, our pastor, Dr. Brooks, spoke on Elijah and Elisha.  Its always awesome to see our pastor come to camp with us and share this time in the lives of our students.

We had a packed afternoon that included a paintball war between the youth staff and some of our junior girls that won the Camp Tallowood YouTube Challenge – check out one of our previous posts to see their video.  Sadly despite all my trashtalk, I got annihilated by these girls once we actually got to play the game.  It was a humbling experience but they did a good job of taking it to me, Jerome, Rebecca, Carl, Peter, Claire, and Joel.  

After paintball, we headed out to the softball field for our annual Saints and Sinners softball game between the Tallowood Seniors and the Camp Tallowood sponsors.  This has proven to be a heated battle the past few years but this year it was a one-sided victory for the sponsors.  Final score: Sponsors 18, Seniors 3.

We ended the night with worship (with another great message from Scot Pollok) and the  Tribal Shout: Voice of the Prophets where each tribe presents a two minute sketch depicting their assigned prophet from the Old Testament period we are studying.  We had some amazing presentations from our students!  I love seeing the creativity of our students on display.  Now, its late and I can’t believe I’m still up.  I’m ready for Wednesday.  Lights Out!
