Living the Life

Week one of camp is done.  All of us are exhausted, but it has been such an amazing week and are looking forward to another week of Konnektions.  (Konnekt is our theme for the summer, so you will probably be seeing the word "konnekt" a lot!)  As interns we have many different jobs from working in the room where the speakers and band stay, the info table, lights, cameras, stage manager, in the store, and rec.  I am the volleyball manager for the summer.  Which consists of making the bracket each week and refereeing volleyball during each day of the tournament.  My two favorite jobs that I have got to do this past week are stage manager and Camera 4 (which is a roaming camera which films the drummer on stage).  One of the goals of all of the interns is to make Konnektions with youth leaders and students.  I wasn't really sure if I was going to be able to get to know any students here or not, but it has been amazing how many konnektions I got to make last week.  There was one girl specifically who I got to Konnekt with and it was amazing to get to know her and am so blessed to be apart of her week.  All of us have learned so much the past week about how the summer is going to be running so it was a pretty stressful week but we are all ready to take on the next week of campers on Monday.  We have the weekend off to do whatever we want, so we slept in and went to the beach all day.  We played some beach volleyball and layed out!  Tonight the interns and staff are hanging out in the big room watching movies and doing karaoke!  It will be a great time to just relax and get to know each other better!
