Our Trip to Camp Hanes

On Thursday morning, I stepped on a bus with my advisory heading to a new world, Camp Hanes. Camp Hanes is in King, North Carolina. On the bus, we watched Madagascar and sang songs for some reason. Max, my best friend, and I played some D&D on the bus. 

My favorite activities were rock climbing or hiking. At rock climbing there was a rope hammock over the climbing wall. The hike was long and tiring. There were steep parts where we had to use ropes to get up. The view was spectacular! 

I am proud that I had no injuries. (another kid rolled both ankles) Thanks to Cammi, Bella, Dem, Sarah, and Kayla for being our councilors. It was amazing!

My Finding Someplace Backpack

Over the summer we read Finding Someplace. It was written by Denise Lewis Patrick. It’s about a girl that lives in New Orleans. It’s her birthday and Hurricane Katrina hits so she takes refuge at her elderly neighbor’s house. She had a backpack with miscellaneous things in it . 

If I were in that situation this is what I’m putting in my backpack: Peanut butter, jelly, bread, spoons, and knives to make PB&J sandwiches, Rechargeable batteries/solar chargers to charge stuff, iPad/iPhone to contact people, metal water bottle to store water, water sterilization tablets to clean water, Swiss Army knife (pen, knife, nail filer, scissors, and tweezers) because it’s nice to have, rechargeable flashlight to make light, $500 to buy stuff, disinfectant wipes for cleaning cuts, and band-Aids for cuts.
