SETTING UP A GOD-AWESOME BASE CAMP FOR SCC's YOUNG ADULTS!

  
We are waaaaay ahead of schedule! So far nothing has delayed us (which is kind of unusual lol). In fact, we arrived to camp 3 days before our first group of the summer arrives (the young adults from Suncoast Community Church of Largo, Florida). Soooooooo, that means we get a 3 day head start setting up camp which means we get to go at a no-pressure pace and thoroughly enjoy our work, our environment, and our fellowship. Two of our volunteers - Andrew & Gaby - have now joined us!
 
For TEAM GTD, assembling a Base Camp is more than just randomly setting up a few tents, chairs and a mess hall. We want to create an environment that our groups love. We want to create a Base Camp that is inviting & fun. We want their first impression of their Base Camp to be, "Wow! Sweet! I love hammocks! Who wants to play volleyball! You've got cots, cool! This place is awesome!" Those kind of responses are the kind of responses we get when we set up a Base Camp "The GTD Way". The GTD Way is deliberate, creative, functional and fun. Our objective is to create a temporary playground that promotes spiritual growth, recreation, community, sound sleep, physical renewal, outdoor dining, fun times, adequate hygiene and warmth while preserving a feel of being in God's amazing creation (which reveals the evidence of God). We hope SCC loves it as much as we do!
