Camping and rain don’t mix!
Genesis 8:11 This time the dove returned to him in the evening with a fresh olive leaf in its beak. Then Noah knew that the flood waters were almost gone……
That’s how it feels!
The tents may be up – but the field is very wet and horrible…..so …..looking on the bright side, (Some other camps across the country have it much worse!) this is what we are going to do:
Two of the girls tents are Ok – the other 4 tents of girls are going in the porta cabins we usually use for craft and storage.
The boys are going into the stables – cleaned and disinfected yesterday, and being carpeted today (!) The stable cubicles are actually slightly bigger and certainly brighter than tents…they’ll love it!
This has caused a large headache in sorting it out, especially with the health and safety implications (Which have been sorted and everything is now safe) – please pray for the leaders as this makes the camp much harder – we can’t use the field for games until it dries up.
Many, many thanks to those who have tirelessly cleaned, swept, cleared porta cabins and generally been fantastic in helping us keep the camp running.
And us – we have the caravan, but rather than going on the field, we will be setting up on the hard standing at the back of the barn….very close to the stables!
