English Camp 2009: Friday

English Camp 2009: Friday


Day 5: Last day of camp, and boy was it a great one!

The English camp finished with just as much fun and energy as it started. The only difference is that we have all met new people, made friends and shared experiences. I'm pretty sure that every kid has a signature or small note in their passport from each of the American helpers and most likely a few of the Czech helpers. E-mail and mailing addresses were exchanged and on each face was joy from the week and also sadness from knowing that camp was coming to an end.
Jeremy and I would like to thank everyone who was involved in the camp in anyway. Everyone did a great job, and we hope that you had as much fun as we did. We know that a lot goes into the camp (like housing and feeding the Americans and planning the trips and lunches) and we really appreciate the eagerness of the community to make the Oklahoma team feel welcome. We would also like to say a special thanks for everyone back in the US who was praying for the sucess of the camp, and also the team of Oklahomans who camp to put on the camp for a week. You all were great! You were full of energy and joy, so thank you. We could have never done it without you.
A lot picutes have been put online, so please we checking back to see if we have added any web pages.

Jamie & Jeremy, I enjoyed reading about your English Camp and viewing the pictures. You certainly did an outstanding job in setting up the activities. I'm sure the children will have lasting memories of their best camp week ever. Love, Grandma D

Thanks, Jeremy, for this last post about camp. I have "my Sam" back home, and am so grateful for that. But also for him getting to be there. When I asked what he liked best, he said "The Czech people." Maybe some day all of our family can come visit! Blessings,
Sara
