Our First out of town Gig ... Camp Tulakadik
This past weekend our TMP/Fuel Youth Band played our first out of town gig at Camp Tulakadik in Norton N.B. Now you might think that Norton is not the most glorious place to take a road trip to, however the weekend was full of fun and fellowship something that we all needed and relished in having. Playing Talakadik was like coming home for me because I went there as a 
camper in the 90's and not much has changed.
We were asked to come by friends of my bandmate Scott who are the new directors of the camp this year. Camp T. Has a full time Director so, a bunch of us stayed in John and Alisha's cozy little camp apartment, which was nicely decorated I might add.
We stayed up late on the nights talking with John and Alisha who had plenty of funny and crazy camp stories to tell. All of us in the band, except for the fiance have grown up working at camps so it was great to go back and swap stories. Scott, Joell and the boys enjoyed playing the games with the kids and Ryan and I were able to go on a walk despite the FREEZING weather. One of the more hilarious points of the week was a meal/game called trench meal. The premise is to get from the trenches to the meal cards taped on the floor at the other end of the meal hall, while your are being bombed by bombs or rashens ... here's come pic's of the action!!!
Seen here is some great shots of Joell and Scott nailing these middle schoolers with pillows made especially for the game! The weekend all in all was a blast; the worship was good and challenging, many of these kids had not seen a band like ours and by the end of the weekend they were really able to join in and we truly worshiped in spirit and in truth! I look forward to having another chance to serve at camp, and the other chance to serve other groups with our ministry. Check out Camp Tulakadik at www.camptulakadik.com . It's a great site with lots of info. Camping is a unique ministry. Thanks yawl!
