Several of the youth attended St Andrews Camp this summer, where they participated in the usual camping activities and became friends with Orthodox youth from around the diocese.  The first week was horse week, and is always very popular.  In the second week, the campers learned about music.  In the third week, they learned about ecology with many hands on activities.  And if you think this was all about the education, there were bonfires, games, trips to Sylvan Beach Amusement Park and mini golfing, among other activities.  And I hear that there were also hijinks and pranks all around.  

Fr James also returned as Teen Week leader for his third straight year.  

Check out the blog for St Andrews which has some pictures from the sessions, and the main website for information about the camp and its retreat facilities.
