This is something that I never expected I'd do. Work at Calvin Crest. Growing up in Sierra Vista Presbyterian Church, I had the pleasure of signing up for summer camp at Calvin Crest. When I was very young, I went to Miwok Village. When I was still young, but not 'very' young, I spent a week every summer at Sherwood Forest; my Sherwood name, not quite as original as some, was "David Diamondback" as in the diamondback rattlesnake(I had a thing for reptiles back then). Then when I was in Junior High, I went to boomtown, had a tan bandana first time, then a green one, I still have both. But once I hit highschool, I stopped going. I don't really know why. I entertained thoughts about doing Outpost, but I never went for it. But since then I've been to a few retreats, dinners and such up there, I've always liked the place. My oldest sister was summer staff there once. And my middle sister did Outpost. I actually did a babysitting job at Cedar Lodge once...went for a little hike with this cool little kid, that was fun.
Now, I've worked at most of the Christian Camps in the area, Sugar Pine, Camp Oakhurst, and Emerald Cove/YSSC, I guess Calvin Crest is next on the list...then after that, maybe I'll see about working at Summit Adventure. Who knows? Hmm. I wonder if anybody else has worked at all of them...I could be the first one.
It's not set in stone yet, but I'm hoping that I'll be able to do the Common Fire thing for the next few months. I don't know what kinds of ripples I'll send into the bucket, but I think it'll be a good thing.

God is good. All the time. There aint nobody better!

:) Yay Common Fire! You have my blessing to ROCK THE BOAT in everyway possible! It'll be great for you... and great for them. Don't be afraid of showing who you are or who everyone should be... This is your chance on the soap box. I am thrilled for you and I only wish I had the chance to do it again with where I am now. Don't give up on draging people from their little comfort zones. You just go ahead and rock thier little community boat. Woohoo! Praise God for you, Davidy.
