Raking on Camp

Dear everybody,




We love our beautiful Lican Ray Bible Camp. The property is covered with beautiful trees of all different species.

What results from having lots on trees on camp is lots of branches and leaves to rake up in the winter!


What a job! This time around we started a little earlier in the year since we are actually living on camp now. We've been at it with the kids for the past few weeks, working most afternoons after they get done with their schooling.


Yesterday, we had Teresa, a young lady from the El Tume church, call and ask if she could come to camp and work wherever needed. We never turn anyone down that wants to work!


She worked really hard and got the main part of camp cleaned of all leaves and branches.

Dan used the pitchfork to pick up the piles and throw them in the bed of the pickup.

Even Morgan helped!


Then we would drive to another part of camp to dump the leaves.

This was our kids' favorite part of the job! They helped push on the tarp to dump the leaves out and then got to jump in the piles.




We appreciate all who sacrifice of their time to come and work on camp.

The work is never ending but it is gratifying at the end of a day's work to see progress.

Liz
