I cannot believe it. Camp Hanna is no more. Everything I have worked toward in my internship is now over. The month long camp out is done. Finished. I feel as if a giant weight has been taken from my shoulders. Although my neck muscles are all slightly injured...funny how that happened. i chose to play stretchy pants with a grown man and two teenage boys...i went flying after the 3rd or 4th fling and hit my head on the ground super hard. i thought i had a concussion. but i was fine, my neck is just soar now.
Other than that, i did a LOT of rappelling off the red rock (like 5 or 6 times), played in the pond, took care of teenage boys and their parents (the last day), set up and ran the Hanna Challenge, had a water carnival (we have a GIANT inflatable slide and i hooked the hose to it...it was fun. Although i never went down it on an inner tube), got made fun of for being a hippie-vegetarian-mormon. It was fun. Sometimes stressful. But fun.
Derek came up for the last two days. It was fun to have him there. He helped out a lot. And held his own really well, because I was running around like a crazy chicken with my head cut off doing stuff. Another fun guest was Sean Bradly. Have you heard of him? I never had. All I thought was wow, that's the tallest man I've ever seen in my life. 7'6". Retired Professional Bball player. Really cool guy.
All in all, Camp Hanna was a success. I now have girls camp and youth conference planned for the rest of my life. If you ask me if I'd do it again, I'd say no. 2 weeks is too long for the kids to be in such close proximity with each other. 1 week would be perfect. But it was fun.
Ps: this is the red rock we rappelled off of.
