Last Weekend

So apart from the suckyness of getting sick, last weekend at HM Rage was really cool. We all met up at church on Friday night and packed into cars. I had Bex and Elle, Tina and Mina! In full.... Rebekah, Elli, Christina and Romina. We had plenty of lollies so were sorted for the possibility of a long trip down in the traffic. I was so shocked that we just cruised the whole way down. There wasn't a single hold up at all. We met at Matamata McDonalds, some people grabbed a quick feed (I got a quick coffee!!).
After a few hitches when we arrived at Totara, we all got settled.
Everyone joined in for the Soccer and Rugby competitions and we went to the Talent Quest heats to support the people that had entered - Izak and his super movie and the boys band Ascendence of the Fallen and Keirs comedy routine.
The 1920's Gangster themed banquet was really well done. Eveyone looked great all dressed up.
James Rees-Thomas was the speaker from Wellington and he presented the gospel message in a real, relevant and challenging way.
Camps are a great place to get to know each other in a different environment. I think we came away from the weekend as a tighter group. It was great to see the Youth encouraging each other in every area.

Hopefully I'll post some photos from the weekend next week. I have them edited on my laptop - just need to burn them to a disc and bring it in to work.
