dayone_2 Well, the crew got up early to go to breakfast at 6:00A.M. We enjoyed scrambled eggs, bacon and toast. We left for Sheetz’s to complete our daily ritual. The group  split up, and Joel tried to upload our summary of yesterday’s accomplishments. Unfortunately, that failed quite epically.We all met up at the Athey site to distribute drinks to the Athey and Delcid sites, which were very close together.  dayone_1 Joel then took Melissa, Ashley, Carrie, Sean, Jenna, Trey and Carter to the Powell site to start demolishing the ramp. We accomplished most of the demolishing, making us on schedule .  Adham had Sarah, Andrew, Taylor, Tori and John. They built the foundation for the Athey site. They put half of the deck boards on and also started putting up the railing. Joe’s group which was Shawn, Sam, Bryan, Kate, and Hailee; went to the Delcid site and raked/dug trenches, also set up the dayone_3 boardwalk. They also cut wood and leveled concrete boxes. We had lunch at the air-conditioned Paw-Paw UMC(which felt AMAZING!). We had a cheesy chicken and rice casserole, ham sandwiches, peach cups,tangy lemonade, ice tea, chips and lemon cake. We went back to our job sites, and completed our first official day of Camp Joy 2010! We left Paw-Paw around 4:15, to head to Hancock for dinner. We dayone_10 enjoyed taco night, which was a choice of either taco chips or a soft taco, refried beans and green beans with a toppings bar and ice cream sundae’s at Hancock UMC. We also  had our worship service there where Brain, Sarah, Ashley, and Sean gave a synopsis to the whole camp on each of the sites (a.k.a site reports).  After the worship service we returned to camp for fellowship with our group. A group of kids went down to the creek and discovered a rope and swing. They all came back fairly drenched.
