Winkler Bible Camp

Chapter 1 ropes course

On Wednesday June 5, 2013 we went to Winkler bible camp. We had to go across a creek. My feet were on a wire and I was holding another wire with my hands. I was afraid I was going to fall into the creek. Then we walked across stumps, then we stood and held a wire like before but wasn’t as scary because I did it before and we weren’t going over the creek. Then we walked across stumps again then we had to walk across tires hanging in the air by a chain, then we had to walk on stumps again, then we came to a play structure and went inside and climb in it but it wasn’t that hard because they bolted a ladder in. then we came to the creek again and went across it will walking on a wire a 2 wires attached to the wire you walked on. It was very wobbly. Then we went on a zip line. You sit on a seat made of wood.  It was fun but not scary. You walk back and give them the harness and your helmet. Then we went on a Tarzan rope. Then I and Carl went across a tree going across the creek. Carl lost his balance and grabbed me and we fell in. then Jordan fell in for no reason. We had a shower so we don’t stink. I was the only one who had extra clothes. I gave Jordan my swimming trunks but his shirt was still wet.

 Chapter 2 rock climbing

Because Jordan and Carl were wet they couldn’t rock climb but they could bolder. I climbed the crevice and shmeasy. The crevice to ring a bell you needs to hang upside down. I didn’t let go or need the rope to go up. The shmeasy took me like 2 minutes to finish. Robert tried to climb shmeasy but he chickened out. But Robert did the crevice. Carl didn’t get to climb but Jordan did. Most of the time we boldered.

 Chapter 3 lunch time

Then we got our lunch I was throwing a juice box up a slide at Carl and then Robert asked if he could and I said sure. On his 1^st throw he exploded it. Good thing I packed 3 juice boxes. After lunch we had free time. We played mini golf. I hit a ball like 50 feet in the air. It was fun. I did the course like 10 times. It was awesome.

Chapter 4 horseback riding

So after mini golf we went to a barn. We got split into two groups. 1 group was boys the other one was girls. The girls rode first, while the boys were petting the animals. There were kittens, a guinea pig, rabbits, chicken, horses, sheep, goats and some ether animals. When the girls got back we went. My horses name was sunny, Carl’s horses name was dino and Jordan’s was gizmo. We went on a trail. I liked my horse. It

 

Chapter 5 canoeing

    After horseback riding we went canoeing. Me, Carl and Jordan were canoeing buddies. I was at the front Carl was in the middle and Jordan was at the back. I and Jordan paddled left and Carl paddled right. We had saying to paddle. Carl’s way we all paddled right and Jordan and Stephan’s way meant to paddle left. We didn’t know for a while the person at the back steers. We crashed in to some people and land. I and Jordan switched but it was harder that way so we switched back. It was our favorite out of all. We almost flipped it a couple times, but we never did. Close to the end we played tag so you have to crash into or touch there boats to tag them. It was awesome. That was all our first times canoeing. 

 

Chapter 6 archery

After we walked to archery. I Robert and Noah took a shortcut. The commanders split us in groups. Group1, group2 and group3. I was group 1 we went last and group 3 went 1^st.  I hit the target 2 times, Carl hit the target 7 times and Jordan hit the target 3 times, it was fun.

 

Chapter7 the wiener roast

After archery we had a wiener roast. I had 1 hot dog and some chips. After we had free time again and I played mini golf. It was the best field trip ever I loved itJJJJJ!!!!!!!!

Our school trip

On Wednesday June 5^th we went to Winkler bible camp. When we got there we put our stuff in the chapel then we went to ropes and we did an obstacle cores. First we went on a thing with two ropes and you walk on them and try to get to the other side without falling in the creek. Jordan, Stephan and Carl fell in. Then we went to the zip line after doing the course and I was a little scared to go on the zip line but I did it and it was not scary. The zip line was over the trees then someone caught me at the end and it was fun. Then I went back to ropes and tried a rope called the Tarzan rope and it went over the creek too. And I went 15 times. And it was fun the girl kept asking me if I wanted to come back and I kept saying NO! Then we went rock climbing and Joyce touched the top and had to say life is good really loud and rings a bell and she couldn’t reach the bell so she said ding then she came down and she said it was fun and her hands really heart. Then it we went for lunch me, Holly and Joyce ate on the swing. We made a new friend named George.  Then we left and went to go horseback riding and we got split into two groups. On horseback riding and the other group went to the petting zoo. My group went horseback riding first. My horse’s name was Sunny and she was a really good horse. I didn’t even have to control her because wherever the horse in front went Sunny would go. And then we went for another bathroom break and then we went canoeing. Me, Holly and Joyce went in a canoe. We did not know how to steer the boat and then we asked the life guard and we figured it out then we went under the bridge and then we went to the end of the lake. There were rocks.  Me, Holly, and Joyce got stuck then we figured out a way to get out we used our oars and pushed off and we got out then we went back under the bridge and we got stuck again! Then we went to the shore and Holly did not want to go again so Joyce sat down in the water and she got so wet and then we all went back in the canoe again! And we had to go tell the teacher that Joyce and me were wet and Holly and Joyce and me had to go to the bathroom and then we went back to the chapel got a drink from the drink machine then we went to archery and we had groups 1, 2, 3 I was group 3 Joyce was in group 2 and holly was group 1. Archery was kind of fun Mrs. Penner got lessons from Robert and she almost got it in the middle it was unbelievable it was so cool then it was time to go then we went and roasted hotdogs over the fire and it was fun. Then we saw George and asked him if he wanted to play basketball and he said yes then we had to go and me Holly and Joyce said bye and we went on the bus and we went back to the school and after we went to the school I watched the band concert it was the best day of my life!

On the bus I sat with Martine. When we got there we put our stuff away then we got told the rules. Then we went to our first activity. It was rope course. We listened to the rules. They told the girls to zip line first. I was first. When I went down it was majestically awesome. And it was long. Then I got to go on Tarzan first. It was super fun that I didn’t want to get off. The boys in my class got wet: Jordan, Carl, Robert and Stephan. Next we went wall climbing. The boys had to take off their wet shirts and I was laughing. There was bouldering and wall climbing. I didn’t ring the bell but I tried.

On Wednesday June 5^th we went to Winkler bible camp. The boys did the ropes course.  Me, Noah and Matteo skipped it then we did the obstacle course. It was really fun. It was my 3^rd favorite. Next we did zip lining. It was not fun because it was too short and too slow. Next I did the Tarzan rope it was fun. I hope I get to go there again. It was fun!
