High Adventure Camp

I was a chaperone at Boy Scout High Adventure Camp earlier this month. We were on base at Camp Zama, and in tents, but I wouldn't say we were exactly roughing it. These are the best of the photos I posted on Facebook.

The boys had assigned scripture reading every morning

It was a free-for-all in the dining hall. Who serves Mt. Dew for breakfast??

They had 3 days of sword training with a samurai descendent.

Ultimate frisbee

Firearm training

No live ammo was used--it's a high tech military training simulator. Basically, a cool video game. 

More from the 4th

A few more photos I came across from other sources.

Wearing stylish safety goggles at the paint gun shooting range.

New friends Cody & Jessica in the cardboard boat race

That's me in the back about to have a water balloon explode on my chest. 

4th of July at Yokota

I spent the 4th of July with friends on the Yokota Air Base, starting with an early morning Firecracker 5K

Helped out with the cardboard boat race timing

Kuniko joined me for the afternoon festivities, including a water balloon toss

Petting zoo

Various musical acts

and a ton of other stuff, including fireworks at the end. Fund day.
