This year we went to a baseball game of the Valleycats vs. Lake Monsters; and let me just tell you, Beardo was the only person who was actually watching the game. However, I was having just as much fun since I was talking and laughing with the people next to me.<\/p>\n<p>I was sitting next to Hoops, Sarah and Isaac, and we were basically just laughing the whole time. It\u2019s times like those that make camp fun because you get to spend time and get closer with people from camp. Because of the field trip, the four of us have a TON of inside jokes.<\/p>\n<p>Okay\u2026fun\u2019s over, the game\u2019s done, Valleycats won (which was very surprising), time to go back to camp, but wait&#8230; all of a sudden\u2026BOOM SSS KAPOW! We look up and see beautiful huge fireworks!<\/p>\n<p>They were so close and I wish I could explain how amazing of a moment it was, but it\u2019s just one of those things where you have to be there to understand. Whites, reds, blues, oranges, the sky was bursting with color and the crowd was filled with oohs and aahs.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, I loved the field trip, and it\u2019s one of my favorite memories from camp. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-10196 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2018\/09\/take-me-out-to-the-ball-game-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"449\" height=\"253\" srcset=\"http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2018\/09\/take-me-out-to-the-ball-game-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2018\/09\/take-me-out-to-the-ball-game-768x432.jpg 768w, http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2018\/09\/take-me-out-to-the-ball-game-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/jforj.org\/campgilgal\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/sites\/4\/2018\/09\/take-me-out-to-the-ball-game.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 449px) 100vw, 449px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michelle B., Age 12 Tribe of Issachar \u2018Twas a dark and stormy day.
