Camp Victory

I got the chance to go on a little trip for Sitka Lutheran Church.  I was given this opportunity because they needed an adult to accompany a youth member of the church.  It was the All Alaska Lutheran Youth Retreat in Camp Victory about 50 miles East of Wasilla, Alaska.
It was such a fun weekend! I felt more like a kid than an adult. We played tons of games, indoor and outdoor: football, dodgeball, a game called amoeba, card games, broom ball, and basketball. We also did a lot of tubing downhill.
There I go!
This is the lake to the north.
This is out playing broom ball on the southern frozen lake.

The location of the camp is cool because it lies on the strip of land between two lakes. The camp looks like a completely different place in the summer time.

  1. How many people were there? Was there a campfire?

  2. There were about 90 people. There weren't any campfires. I bet there are in the summer, but not in the winter time. It seems like it would be too cold to stay still outside for very long.
