Facts: 1. Hitler Youth program or BDM was a way for Hitler to mold children from a young age. They would have to pass a written examination or test to make sure they “mastered Nazi ideas about race and politics.” Members also got background checks to make sure they weren’t Jewish and didn’t have any Jewish ancestry. Only healthy members that passed a physical test (including running races, throwing baseballs, swimming, and performing gymnastic stunts) and courage tests (such as jumping from two…

The Hunting Camp From 2006 until 2010 my father, uncle, and I were all members of a hunting club. Although we were there to hunt, it was likely the smallest aspect of the trip. We spent more time around a campfire than we did in any tree stand. The camp, for me anyways, was broken into three major areas: the hunting grounds, the campgrounds, and the camper itself. It was in these places that I have some of my fondest memories that I enjoy revisiting. It was quite enjoyable for years, then for…

Summary of Evans Lake Day 1 On the bus ride to Evans Lake was very fun because I was sitting beside one of my best friends Casey. On the bus ride we had lots of snacks including cookies, chips and a little bit of candy, we watched the Minions movie, and we played card games. When we arrived, we played a game called knuckle ball, what was very unique about playing it at Evans Lake was they had a arena built for it, the game was very fun. After we were done with that we went…

I grew up in a church filled with traditions. One of these traditions was started by our youth pastors father; Wilderness Trail. All throughout my elementary years I would hear talk of the annual youth trip up to Troutdale, Virginia. In sixth grade I finally got the chance to go. Wilderness Trail is a backpacking ministry in southwest Virginia, each summer groups come and go on a 5 day backpacking trip on the Appalachian Trail. The second I stepped foot on the property, I fell in love. There was…

The bear looked towards us and we quickly ran. It was the summer of 2010 and we went up camping at Nordhouse Dunes campground(Manistee National Forest). Its was a bright sunny Saturday morning. The smell of fresh bacon being cooked over a campfire with a nice glass of milk to drink. We had the whole day planned out for us. Eat breakfast, and go for a walk in the dunes. Then later that night we decided that we would make some s'mores once it gets dark. It was gonna be a normal camping trip, but…

“It was a dark and stormy night…” Sitting before the campfire with his fellow knights, Gwaine groaned. “Percival, it’s supposed to be a scary story. Not a dull tale with a trite start. We’re out on a dull mission! Keep us entertained.” “Fine.” The dancing firelight cast shadows across Percival’s face as his eyes narrowed. “What about a real story? Something more frightening than you can imagine. Something macabre.” Gwaine kicked up his feet onto a rock and grinned. “I am intrigued. Carry…

health. For entertainment I do a lot of things. This includes, watching YouTube, playing on my PS4 and watching movies. For aboriginals that isn’t common. Aboriginal children usually go hiking, mountain climbing and sometimes dance and sing in campfires! They also play tug a war with friends and family. Not to mention, there comes education The aboriginals education wasn’t the best but was still better than nothing. They sometimes go to a traditional school where they learn the aboriginal…

Growing up, I struggled with self-esteem. Repeatedly, I was bullied for the way I looked and I was always fearful of not getting the grades in school that my parents wanted from me. I didn’t believe that anything I did was good enough or that I would ever measure up. Which, sadly, I came to find out, is true. The first point of the Gospel, or good news, is that we are all sinners, or people who say no to God. The Bible says, “...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” Imagine…
