Fall Bandai Camp Report

Mon 01 Dec 2014

The 20th Fukushima HOPE - Fall Bandai Camp was held at National Bandai Youth Friendship Center in Nov. 22-24.

We had a smaller group this time, but the children were as energetic as ever, running and playing outside.

The rain stopped us in the half way during the walk rally on the 2nd day, but the indoor orienteering was just as fun and exciting!

The camp was concluded with making and tasting ice cream at a farm.

October camp in Yamagata was held on Oct. 11-13. We had lots of fun with grape picking, making rolled pizza, hiking, and trying the field athletics course, as well as the usual game and Bible time and movie night. We all enjoyed the Yamagata grapes and hand-kneaded pizza!
