Great group. Great volunteers. Great adventures. Great weather. Great food. Great new friendships. Great memories. This has been one of the best adventure trips ever run for the Family Center on Deafness over the past 14 years! They loved every minute of it, and I was blessed with a strong team of volunteers. We are already looking forward to 2018. Today we had to say goodbye to this wonderful group. But we don't have time to relax because our 22nd Annual SLAMMED Adventure Trip stays tomorrow! Clean up, grocery shopping, and our regular trip prep is underway! Thank you for your love, prayers, & support!

North GA Bound!
It's 24 hours later than we wanted to leave, but we are north Georgia bound. Our first Adventure Trip of the summer kicks off tomorrow night outside of Toccoa, GA with the middle school youth group from Calvary Chapel of St Petersburg. It's our 14th year of working with this awesome group lead by Josh Harris. Can't wait to build another memory with them in God's amazing creation! =)
