On October 1st – 3rd we had our Rainbow retreat. I had a GREAT time, all the way from the car ride there to the moment we left.  We started out by jammin’ out to some 80’s and Disney music with our car full of people and enjoyed the ride down to Camp Overlook in Keezletown.  When we got there, we had a great time interacting and reuniting with friends! Then we set up all of our stuff and went to watch Cinderella!

The second day, we had an eventful day of games, decorating, and fun challenges! Each one taught us an important lesson. We were all on different teams (Pumpkin, Gus Gus, Jaq, Glass Slipper) we decorated our team signs then we went on to do small challenges and learn lessons along with them. After all of the stations, we ate lunch and went out to play sports and games.  We played volleyball, kickball, an egg spoon race, and more! My personal favorite was kickball, it was a lot of fun! After our very eventful day, we ended the night by eating s’mores and singing songs by then campfire.  And then the next day we all said goodbye to our friends and headed home.

I can’t wait to find out what’s in store for next year’s retreat!
