Fall Explore! Day: Adventure, Creativity, and Connection at Camp

Nov 25, 2024 | Carol Joy Holling Camp

By Laura Stalder, Youth Programs Specialist

Fall Explore! Day was a great time for campers to come to camp for the day.

We spent time getting to know each other while playing name games and other big group games.

We jumped right into the challenge of the Forest Zipline. It’s a time that challenges us to take that leap off the platform to feel the air rushing past our faces until we are caught at the end.

We also took time to relax and get creative by making pony bead pumpkins.

We dove into our past summer’s theme, Created to Be, as we learned to be our authentic selves and disciples who help our friends when they need it.

After all the fun was had, the day ended with many campers saying, “I can’t wait to come back again!” and “Do we really have to wait until April to have another one?”

We’d love to have your camper join us for our next Explore! Day on April 26, 2025.
