Y-Linc 2013: Preparation Day

We are preppers on this day.

Our Magnificent Headquarters. 

We are breaking out the tents, getting out sleeping mats from storage, digging the fire pit, watching the osprey fly over the awesome lake view and listening for campers that are not quite here yet, but will be soon.
Tomorrow, our 10 campers and 5 Y-Linc alums will arrive at our home base.  Their first task will be to choose their tents and assemble them on the shores of the Sam Rayburn Reservoir, where they will spend their first night of the week under the stars. Some will be sleeping in tents for the very first time. 

We have been told there are hogs in the area, so we will see what adventures await us; hopefully none involving them, or skunks, our outdoor friends from afar.

Thus begins our Y-LINC adventure! Check out our photo album on our Facebook page, and be sure to click that "Like" button to get updates! Connect to our Twitter and LinkedIn pages too!

So in closing, we make this introductory wish, based on an old Irish blessing, on behalf of our campers:  

Our Youth will be camping here, along the shores of
Lake Sam Rayburn (no sleeping indoors for them!)
"May your troubles be less, 
and your blessings be more, 
and nothing but happiness 
come through your tent door!"
