hello blog readers, this is another instalment of our famous blog on how the day went. my name is nathan fetchin and i am a returner from lat years peace camp!
Today we went down to the Father Ryan Art Center and meet the instructors that would be teaching campers. We had Visual Arts, Dance, Drama, Music, and Play Creatively as our classes that we do. As a group of people we have come together and talked about what peace means to us and what we have come to think about what peace means to us. Did I mention that we have met our administrative staff who planned the event, and our high school counselors? They were so enthusiastic on how their ideas of peace that the vibe of the room just jumped from like ten levels and everyone in the room just felt it, the whole room just went from a dull sleep to a “Let’s do this attitude.”
There was one game that we played that will forever stick in my mind is this game where you and a partner stand across from each other. When this starts each person rubs their hands till their warm. And when they get warm you put the up next to each other (without touching) and see what you feel. When you do this you feel the other person’s energy and with each new partner it feels different. Say if you have a best friend it will be stronger than if you had done it with a stranger.

Hi Nathan, Matthew and Rebekah,
Great to read about your adventures so far at Peace Camp. I do hope that the energy and time you give to this effort ends up giving you lifelong rewards. Certainly you will become part of the energy for good and peace that our world needs so much.
May this be a blessed time for all of you.
