"The Path"
     If there is one thing obvious to most adults it is that people are making some pretty bad choices these days... particularly young people. People don't make bad choices out of necessity or because they are forced into it, they make bad choices because they seldom consider the consequences that follow those choices. "Live for the moment!", "Don't worry about tomorrow!", Do what you want now!" have become a way of life for Generation X. The rock music group, Monster Magnet, describes it pretty well, I think.
    "You'll never find your pleasure if you worry about your pain; and your precious little details are stretchin' out of my brain; Well, you spin around and bite your nails, now let me tell you, son; That you can't trust anybody if you can't trust number one." (Live for the Moment)
     Everyone is on a path that is leading somewhere: you, me, everyone! We choose the paths we take. The paths we choose lead to predictable destinations. Knowing that the paths we choose now will save us loss, embarrassment and regret later is something well worth our attention and effort.
     During our week of camp we will investigate and determine where we are in our lives right now. We will uncover how we got there and how to get on the path that leads us to where we want to be.
     Some things you might expect during the week are awesome games, walking, trail hiking, dirt/mud, bugs, no hot showers, no electricity, and more fun than is legally possible. The food will be the best you've had and the faculty the greatest you've met. It will be a camp experience you'll never forget.
     We'll be going of campus on Thursday July 22nd to the Elkhorn Creek in Franklin County to do some wading and swimming, so bring some old clothes, old shoes, and a signed permission form. (available at registration)
