Saturday we assembled for a quick JAR meeting the we headed to a wonderful breakfast. After that the day was filled with crafts, kick ball, hikes and I'm sure some sleeping. I want to say Congratulations to the Grand Bethel Girls for winning the kickball game between them and the Grand Guardian Council. A BIG Thank You to those of the GGC who "agreed" to play and were good sports about it. We were up 3 - 0 at one point. It only got worse from there. I applaud you for trying GGC members!!
We had about 4 crafts that each person could make. I loved having choices!! I think everyone enjoyed that time to do a craft and be creative.
Lunch was a cookout and was wonderful. It was raining off and on all day but we made the best of it!! Dinner was served family style. I really want to thank those who were the "hoppers" for each table. It meant alot to me for the girls to experience a "Family" dinner. Not everyone has that opportunity these days. Always remember we are all FAMILY!!
Our Misses honored the Jobie to Bee's before the skits. The received a tiara and a sash made by Carolyn our Miss Indiana. They were so cute standing up there. I think there were about 20 of them. Congratulations Bee's. Job's Daughters has a great future ahead of us!!
Our skits were moved from the ampitheature to the dinning hall : ( . This made me sad but it was ok. Before our skits started it was time to give away the Kindle. The 5 lucky winners were up front and were given the challenge of blowing a bubble. I have to say I don't know that I've ever seen my Mother blow a bubble but she gave it her best shot. Way to go Mom!! The kindle was given away to the best bubble maker. I have to say I don't remember who she was but I'm sure she is enjoying her new kindle!! Each Bethel or group was able to present their skit or whatever. I enjoyed this part!! You girls are so talented and really funny. Before we were done I had the pleasure of giving away 2 Ipods. Each Daughter was given a ticket when the entered. We drew from those tickets. I know one was one by Natalie of #108. I don't remember who the other one went to. I hope you are enjoying your new Ipod!! After skits we enjoyed free pizza and soda for everyone in camp.
Sunday brought more rain but that was ok. We enjoyed breakfast and started packing before breakfast. We then went to our Church service that was held inside of Carr. It was a nice service. Thank you to Jamie, Madison, Mahaley and Markanda for assisting. We did not preform the cross but the girls all gathered up front and sang Near My God to Thee. It was very moving. I was in tears ( I know, nothing new...). Thank you to all those who came and enjoyed the weekend with us. I hope you enjoyed yourselves, made some new friends and rekindled some old ones.
Job's Love,
