The LYP Texas Teen Camp for 2024 is now a memory, and most campers and staff have returned home. But here, in this final post, are pics from the final day. Enjoy reliving the memories, beginning with this all-camp photo.
The last day consists of all-camp activities, with friendly competitions and team challenges. Here are some pics.
Then came the Final Banquet!
Here are the Brother and Sister Dorm pairs (all dressed up!)—individually and then together—in ascending order: 1, 2, 3, and 4.
And then, the Final Dance: A lot of setup, a lot of dancing, and a lot of happy grins for the photo booth.
Thanks to all who served and all who came! It was a wonderful summer, and we’re looking forward to next year!
