Searching for Treasures at Mid South Youth Camp

Laura Beth was able to enjoy going to Mid South Youth Camp this week. Mid South Youth Camp is a summer camp run by Freed-Hardeman employees and students. It is usually designed for kids ages 9 or so and up to go and spend the night. However, the last 4 years they have started a program for junior campers ages 6-8. They come to camp from 8:30-2:00 and do a lot of the things the big campers do. They learn the crazy camp songs along with Bible songs. They do crafts. They get to swim. They have mail call and learn the joys of going to MSYC. At the center of all this is the Bible class. This year's theme was "Searching for Treasure." Each day the kids would have their own special treasure hunt depending on the treasure they were looking for (gold, silver, pearls and jewels). They always found the treasure along with a clue that took them to the Bible where they discovered the TRUE treasures. Laura Beth had a blast and told me that she plans on doing this every year!!! Here are the 31 kids from the first week of junior camp this year singing the theme song, "You Are My All in All."
