Retreat Packing List

Ok so the retreat is in 3 days.  Have you even begun to think about packing yet?  I know some of you have been packed since last week and are waiting to bolt out the door.  But before you try to zip up that suitcase, here is a list of some of the things you might want to pack.

Our philosophy is pack for every kind of weather.

Pants, shorts, t-shirts, sweatshirts, socks, sneakers, sandals…you get the idea

If it is hot we might play some water games so clothes to get wet in is probably a good idea.

We will be playing games in the woods, so appropriate footwear (SNEAKERS)

Bathroom supplies

We always seem to forgot our towels so here is your reminder!

Sleeping bag and pillow

Dark clothes for night games

Bible

Camera

Please remember all clothes should follow the camp dress code.  The dress code can be found on the camp website www.camptimberledge.org

If you have any other questions regarding what you should pack, feel free to email us.

If you could have any animal as a pet, what would you have? cats I have two Misty and Daisy

What was your first car? 1967 olive green Cadillac “The Beast” … AM radio only, if you went over a bump the radio went off.

What is the scariest thing you have ever done? A tornado ripped through our neighborhood when Andy was just 2 months old and I took him in the basement and huddled with him in a corner …the tornado hit 2 blocks from our house.

What is your greatest Camp Timberledge memory? When Andy and Janel led worship, Chris and Cory were on staff, Carly and Ethan were with me and Paul came up and we gave him a guitar.

Next best memory was when my parents brought Andy and Janel up and everyone knew about it except for me…AWESOME SURPRISE !

What are you looking forward to the most at Senior Teen 2010?

This year I’m looking forward to just cooking again like every other year….I look forward to it all year long !

Wendy has been the Senior Teen cook for the past 5 years with her two youngest children Carly and Ethan.  For some reason she keeps coming back.  Wendy endures very hot temperatures and long hours in the kitchen without complaints!  For a few years she did it all without help! Wendy goes above and beyond the call of duty as she tries to make camp meals more than just food in mass quantities.

Wendy has had lots of practice cooking as she is a mother of 5.  We are lucky she practices on them because she brings only the best to camp for us!  When Wendy is not cooking she is busy planning parties, raising Carly & Ethan, and is glued to the TV during American Idol!

Wendy is a very important part of camp.  In her own words, “You feed the kids spiritually, I feed the kids physically.”
