2010 Columbus Day Teen Retreat at Blairhaven

The Columbus Day 2010 teen retreat at Blairhaven was.....








a
n amazing collection of SCYL friends including a large group from the Midwest who braved a daring and challenging drive involving a broken down van named Clifford in Ohio and still finding a way to get all the way from Indiana to the Eas
t Coast, picking up teens along the way.

wickets and mallets on a sunny Saturday afternoon as the 2010 killer croquet tournament amused and confounded many.













e
ngaging conve
rsations, presentations and acting as everyone participated in the theme "Ages and Stages: Your Changing Roles in the Theater of Life."

sometimes a bit too m
uddy for me as the second annual mudfight happened for a brave few at sundown on Sunday night.

only a bit scary on brownie movie night as we watched the hilarious "Fired Up!" and the equally hilarious "Drag me to Hell" (nice movie for a church retreat, huh) which was slightly gross and a bit disturbing but quite humorous and not very scary.

magnificently bright and sunny for our outing to Duxbury beach for an hour at the ocean as several teens from the Midwest had never seen the sea.

exciting disco glow bowling, an inspirational teen led worship service, acting like babies and the elderly as Rev Kevin took us on a movement adventure through life, and eating, laughing, playing, and loving in community as only a SCYL retreat can do!


Thank you teens, ministers and leaders for an
awesome retreat.
