The weekend involved arts and crafts, horseback riding, rock climbing, zip-lining, canoeing and kayaking in Balcones Springs’ Lake Ted, and of course, lots of eating! The mothers even had some time to relax with wine and cheese while the boys watched a movie and enjoyed ice cream.
After dinner on the second night, everyone enjoyed s’mores and a bonfire before being surprised by camp’s most famous event—Mission Impossible! Mothers and sons were put on teams and given a “mission” to find certain glow sticks hidden all over camp. This process was more easily said than done, however, as they were being pursued in their search by bandits armed with water balloons!
The next morning, we bid adieu to all of our lovely mothers and sons, but hopefully not for long! Camp is just around the corner, and we hope to see all of our guests—and more—back here in no time.
Some comments left by our lovely guests include:
“I could not have asked for a better weekend, the staff was so loving and welcoming.”
“Had a wonderful time and the staff was extremely friendly – we will be back!”
“We are leaving with memories I know will last a lifetime.”
If this sounds like fun to you and you missed out, don’t fret! We are hosting a similar weekend retreat for the whole family--CBS Family Camp--March 7-9, 2014.
The Mother/Son Retreat was coordinated by Carolyn Hays.
