Warrior

Thor is home! I just drove up to Eveleth yesterday to pick him up from Camp Warren. He was gone for 2 weeks and I finally feel like I can breath again! He had an amazing time swimming, boating, shooting bows and arrows and riding horses. Each camper gets to choose 4 different activities and work on those skills during the session. One of the activities he chose was called "Warren Warriors." There was a little awards ceremony before we left where each activity leader got up and told a bit about their program. A nice, soft-spoken young man named Colin got up to describe this new program. Apparently, he just wanted to take the boys out and teach them how to have fun in the woods. It was a combination of lifting and throwing heavy things, poking at gross things, jumping off tall things with a liberal sprinkling of ninja moves thrown in. The first thing Thor wanted to show me when I got to camp was his running shoulder roll. I have to admit, it was quite impressive. I know a lot of these skills will serve him well at Camp Freedom!
