Fall Camp

Last week was the high school fall camp.  This is a time when we take the entire high school to a camp north of Beijing for three days.  The school is divided into teams of 10 and the seniors are leaders of these teams.  The teams compete in games, skits, and presentations.  It is really a great time for students to get to know kids in all grades and to promote leadership skills in our seniors.  This year fall camp went really smoothly and I enjoyed the time.  The weather was beautiful after raining the first day and it was great to be near the mountains and enjoy fresh air.  

As tradition holds the students made their own stew over a fire the first

 evening and skits were performed by all.  Enjoy the pictures. :)  Oh and our speaker this

 year was Jungrok who taught with me my

 first two years here.  It was wonderful to have fall camp

 together again! :)  

The Egg toss:  Every year one team competition is the egg toss.  This is quite a big deal and the distance that the students can toss an egg and catch it is crazy.  If you can carefully see below, the student in black is getting ready to catch the egg from a student WAAAYYYY down the road.
