snow snow snow


i really have to say that i dislike snow. but i'm sure you've all heard that song before. it's cort reporting here. i'll try and get steph and maybe a couple of the other staff to update so that you can get to know more than just me. it's currently snowing. i'm looking out of the program window ( i have to look over and beyone this weird plant in my office that sits ontop of my computer tower...i can't seem to figure out if it's dying or thriving...). the snow is really light and wispy (as much as snow can be wispy) but the really beautiful thing is that the trees are all coated with this thick blanket of snow. they seem to droop with the weight of it all. and even if it's not actually quiet...it seems that way. silent...maybe even peaceful.


i hope that you're all doing well. life is starting to pick up again here. retreats are the flavour of the season. we have a ladies retreat on feb. 9-11 (tell you mom), a family camp on feb. 16-19 (get your WHOLE FAMILY OUT HERE) because there's gonna be skating, tobogganning, sleigh rides, climbing wall, horses...), and then there's like 4 more retreats between the end of march and the end of april. and then...summer camp. wow - it's only 5 months away. that's crazy.


and if you happen to be wanting to work here in the summer. get your butt in gear because we're currently accepting applications for all positions.


anyways, i'm outta here for now. today's picture is of the fireworks on saturday night of Rise 'n' Shine. peace out my little evergreeners.

I would like to thank, on behalf of the band, program, the vollenteers, and of course the kids for coming out to the rise 'n' shine. the herbs had an absolute blast and the kids were pretty enthusiastic. i would also like to thank Nathan again for speaking that weekend.

God bless

Alyssa,

it's no good to hate your teacher. she's got a pretty tough job teaching all day long. it's a big responsibility. try encouraging her tomorrow...saying something nice or bring her a chocolate bar or something. i bet you'll make her day.

Keep Calm and Play Jug 'n' Jog

Jug 'n' Jog. If the world could just play more Jug 'n' Jog - I think it would be a happier place. It is quite possibly the number one, most singularly enjoyed game at camp. In fact - there are times when I think kids could come to camp, only play Jug 'n' Jog and leave being the happiest kids on Earth. In fact, we could almost be renamed Camp Jug 'n' Jog. And it's also funny - my computer or iPhone doesn't even recognize the words or phrase as being a spell check. That's when you know you talk about something a lot. You might think that those opening statements are strange or even foreign - maybe you don't even know what Jug 'n' Jog is...well, let me tell you! It's epic, it's fantastic, and it's played with recycling (we have to be good stewards, you know). The concept is quite simple - the field is divided into two halves, each team has a square on it with recycled jugs in it. The goal is to get the other team...

thanks for stopping by. this is a new thing for us so bear with us as we figure out technology. basically we started this blog to create a place where all of our friends can come visit us 24/7/365. and by friends i mean you...yeah you...campers, kids who visit us from schools, church groups, retreaters...and anybody you might haul along for the ride. we'll keep you informed as to what's on the dL as far as programming goes and what the happenings are at camp...and maybe some funny stories to go along with those. please check out Camp Evergreen's main site for any contact information. well - i've gotta get and start prepping for our sr. high retreat this next weekend (sept. 15-17th). until next time this is courtney (aka c-bear...aka cort) signing out. stay strong in his grip.
