I had lots of fun on the night walk even though on the way back, I got a bit tired. I also liked drinking hot chocolate and sitting around the bonfire. My favourite part was archery, I loved popping the balloons. The snake pit was fun, even though it took a long time to wash the mud out of our hair!

It was an awesome experience. My favourite activity was borrow the ball, because of trying to free people from jail. I didn’t like the mud. My favourite facilitators were Jabs and Emily and all the other facilitators were very nice. The food was delicious. Camp El Olam you have out done yourself. This was truly the best excursion ever!
