Keghans holiday recount

Introduction 

In the holidays I went to Woodend Christian Camp and there were go-carts, a flying fox, rock climbing wall, archery, air rifles, a water slide, and aero jump.  

high light 1 

The go-carts were my favorite thing because it went so fast and because it was fun.

High light 2 

The forest game was the best thing at camp because you got the be a pegasus, sheep wolf, dragon 
elemental or Katiness Everdeen and you got to run around in the forest.

high light 3

The food was so good because they had the best cooks and the food was homemade.
What we had was cheesecake, donuts with cream, ice cream with chocolate sauce, and ice cream with apple crumble. 

high light 4 

I got to face my fear of heights on the flying fox and it was the most fun thing on camp.
