Sunday we began the second week of camp. As with all camps they
start with an opening outing. This week it was catared b;y AJ's
Bar-b-cue. AJ is an old friend of ACC who with his brother is in the bar-b-cue catering business. I caught Ben serving in this second shot, and in the third shot are two friends from Sweet Spings waiting
for the meal to begin.

The next show is Miss Mary the cook who
cooks for those workers who are doing
construction, working in library, and other projects. Just as she finished
cooking yesterday's meal, the lights, electricity etc., went out and everybody
ate in the dark. But they didn't mind. Their pork chops covered most of the plate. She always prepares such fine meals

After lunch the Blessing's Ministry group had the task of moving chairs from the basement of the Epicopal Church in HWH to the community center in Ellaine about 20 miles out in the country. Just as we went into the basement of the Epicopal church the lights went out and we had to move the chairs out by weak
flashlight. The next photo was taken by flash. One of
group climbed up on a table to hand the chairs down
to me

After the truck was loaded we took them to Elaine
these next two photos are of the community center
and a little girl helping by taking a chair to the room
where they were to be used.






The last photo is a shot of the "mail" street in Elaine. You can buy
gas, a few staples stamps, and of course alcohol, but
that is about all. The school children all are bussed across the county.
The high school kids are bused about an hour to school.
