CCCC (Carolina Creek Christian Camp)

Christian: Carolina Creek Christian Camp was all about learning about God's word and getting closer to him. After every activity we would get together with the girls in our cabin and talk about how the activity was related to our walk with Christ (for example: almost all of the activities involved belaying and we had to trust the belayer to not drop us, so we would compare that to our walk with Christ by saying that we can trust God to keep us safe just as we can trust the belayer to keep us safe)



Crazy fun: There were a TON of activities including a 1,000 foot zip line, a giant swing, and the blob (I will explain that later). They also had kayaking, tubing, and banana boating. There were many more activities. Not only did they have those activities, but they also had two theme nights. The first theme night was nerd themed; they had games set up in the cafeteria room that were supposed to be the games you play on your phone such as fruit ninja or temple run. For the fruit ninja game they had chopped up bananas and apples that the "ninja" would throw at you to catch with your mouth. You would come to nerd night with your nerdiest clothing such as coke bottle glasses and bow ties. The second theme night was Duck Dynasty themed. We watched Duck Dynasty and played idiotic games such as toilet toss (you tried to throw a roll of toilet paper through a hanging toilet seat) and giant bowling (bowling with giant balls and pins) plus we also had a rubber duck hunt. Fun fun fun.



Caring: If you were to do something kind to another camper or if you were to do something godly you would be rewarded with points. These points would be added to your team's (cabin's) points and at afternoon chapel they would announce the team that had the most points for that day. At the end of the week they announced who the camp champs were. Those were the people in the team that had the most points overall for that week.



Cheer: There were cheers that we had for words, numbers, leaders etc. Here are a few:

For any number In this case the number is ten): TEN! one two three four five six seven eight nine ten. oosh ah ah ah ah boogitie boogitie boogitie ah (clap) a ah (clap) a ah (clap) a ah (clap clap) 

For the skit that they would do at afternoon chapel: Ski-it (clap clap clap) (we would repeat this getting louder each time until the people got on stage)

If someone said okay: Okay. Okay. okay okay okay. ooooookaaaay

To say goodbye: Bye. bye bye bye




Pictures:

This is the blob. The blob is basically a giant air filled pillow in the water. Someone sits at the end and the other person jumps onto the blob from about 15 feet in the air causing the person at the end to fly into the water. Because of my expression you can tell that it is really scary to be the person getting "blobbed".
