WALHOWEEN 2024 Part 2

 Monday was a busy, fun, and crazy day at WALH. The day started out slow with hangouts outside and spending hours at the swimming pool. 

That night started out normal and fun! I spent plenty of time in arts and crafts with Julie and made a pumpkin out of mason jar lids, festive ribbon, and double sided tape! It was a great way to pass the time before the scavenger hunt started.

Before I tell this story, I want you all to listen to this song to describe the thought process of me and my group during our little adventure.

The scavenger hunt theme was Sleepy Hollow, so naturally, everyone split up into teams and went into the woods.... at night.... in the dark.

What we didn't know was that each team had to have at least one person who knew the woods well with them.

We spent a lot of time in the woods thinking eventually, someone would find us and help us get back to camp, but the farther we went, the less people we found. Eventually, we wound up at a camp-- just not the right one! We ended up at the other respite camp by the highway! Donnie and Mariah had to come and rescue us with Lauren's van and we didn't get back to camp until almost 1 am!

It wasn't much of a fun experience then, but now we can laugh about it and we have a great story to tell! 

Stay tuned for my next post about the boat ride we had to be up for bright and early after our little jaunt in the woods.
