Valentines Fun

We helped serve at a Valentine's Banquet at Scottsville Camp.
Below is Donna and Dan Hamiter - who is serving as Interim Camp Manager.



















Next is Phillip and Alice Bough, who are ROAM volunteers.

















Here we are setting up the hot serving line with Brenda Harwick, Heather, and Alice.












Volunteers got together the night before and had a little party of our own in Yocum Center.




















Emma found some time to go fishing in the camp's pond. The big one got away, however.
















One evening after work, Sue and Bill Ponder built a campfire and invited us all to enjoy it's warmth.

Homeschooling on the Road

We are in our second year of homeschooling. Sadie is a 5th grader, and Emma is in 3rd grade. We start our day around 9 am. and finish up by 3 or 4 pm. Our curriculum is a combination of textbooks and computer-guided learning. The girls are doing very well in their lessons!




Sometimes we take our books down to the dining hall and work at one of the tables there.
Our homeschool history group. We are studying the Revolutionary War and reading the biography of Betsy Ross.
