Camp Report - Adventure 2011
This year the adventure camp had a lower number of campers but a greater number of leaders. This meant that there was an opportunity for everyone to get to know each other better and for closer fellowship.

As usual on adventure camp we had our mix of exciting activities such as coasteering, rock climbing, sailing, high ropes, team games to name just a few as...
