Hawks Game

January 26th, 2010

On MLK Day, we took 17 of our Leadership campers to a Hawks game.  This is an annual even we do for those campers who are entering the 2nd level of Leadership, also known as Sr. LIT, or for those campers who have graduated from Sr. LIT.  After lunch at the Varsity (yum!), we watched the Atlanta Hawks play the Oklahoma City Thunder.  It was a close game…even down to the last minute, but even though the Hawks lost, the kids enjoyed hanging out with one another!

Until next time…many blessings!
