A light in the dark: Survival

Ok well this is a little late but a couple of months ago my mom, brother, friend savanna and I went to a teenpact survival camp. It was a team building and leadership camp. It was a lot of fun, I met a whole bunch of new friends and I had a great team! here are some pics!

Savanna, Luke and I

Rebecka and Jeremiah were my team's staff

My team!

We were the Radical Ecstatical Dominators (RED)

Luke and Savanna's team. The Llamas En Fuego

Identifying leaves

Our team's shelter

We were on "mission possible" as a team we had to build a waterproof and sturdy shelter, a sun compass, a water still, a fire, and a dead fall trap. Then all the staff came and graded us on it.

Our flag and bags

In the shelter

The wall. We had to get our entire team over as many times as we could in a certain amount of time. My team of 11 people made it over 12 times. (we won that challenge)

Island hopping. If you touched the ground or if you let the plank touch the ground then you "lost" a body part. John (in the Georgia hat) lost his tongue so he could not talk. I lost my fingers so I had to keep my hands in fists the whole time. Ian (with the blindfold) lost his eyes and Anna (in the yellow) lost her right leg.

Everyone had face paint on for camo and the only way it would come off is with shaving cream.

Doing our team chants

The spider web. we could not touch the strings

The box. we all had to fit on a small box at one time for twenty seconds

The rope swing. We could not touch the orange tape, the ground on the other side of the tape, or the tree. We all had to swing around to the other side of the tree.
