Week Eighteen: Work Weekend

Song of the Week: Let's Work Together by Canned Heat

Hi All, Katie here. Camp Yona had a fabulous 4th of July weekend. We were blessed to have a wonderful group of volunteers spend their holiday weekend with us working. And we sure did a lot of work. The pictures I've posted for this week do not suffice. Here's a few projects we tackled:
1. Cleaned the Spring House and surrounding areas(now known as Five Points) for camp-outs with girls
2. Cleaned-up trail leading to Five Points
3. Blazed Fox Trot Trail
4. Built Beaver Bridge and Trail

I must admit. We aren't all work. Our evenings were spent in fellowship.

Ben catching a quick snooze. Don't be fooled, not only did he work really hard, but he was our motivator and resident storyteller

There's always time for fishing. Rheto catching his first fish.

Despite the poison ivy, bee stings, blisters, and chiggers our group was all smiles.

Story-time with Benny

Thanks again to everyone who helped make our weekend a success. We hope to do it again soon.
