2012 Classis Fall Retreat @ Circle Square Ranch - Part 2

Moving on from balloon baseball...
It was time for some standard retreat games. 


Get into smaller groups and then have one group try to pry apart another group.  


It gets ugly.....fast......


This group isn't going to let anyone break them apart....

This one didn't have much luck.  Chris B has never been so popular..being pulled in all directions.  Does his arm really bend that way?  ouch....


Here Rachel....take my hand......


Megan H looks like she's wondering if this was such a good idea.....  : ) 


Ready......


Set........


PULL.....


and PULL............


Ben, the victor......


Then there was this other game..
Walk around and do what Madii tells you do to.
She then calls out a number and you need to gather in that group number. Last group to do that is out. 


Lie down (she used other terminology)....


Carry someone...awe, Chris H and Dave look so cute.  




A group of three.......


Quick Sarah, get into a group.....


....a group of three, with one person being held by one leg......



Joy, looking like she's found her knight in shining armor...
bahahahaha


On the ground AGAIN.....

Group huddle time.  

Sit ubu...sit......


On the ground AGAIN.....

Get ready, get set...go......

Move it Sawyer......


Arms out Sawyer


Do the dance......


Only a couple remaining....
on the ground.....AGAIN! 


Ben is out...and not happy about it.  


One more time.......


Looks like Kevin and Megan H are trying to keep something down......breakfast not agree with you?.......
Kevin and I look so formal.......


Awe, that's better......
Sorry Megan.......


Joy looks joyful again. 



This lad, on the other hand....looks not so happy. 


Time for lunch. 



Hey Miranda....oh, and most of Tobie.....

That's better Tobie....
Rachel's just trying to get out of the way.


Christine with all her friends.....


Annette in her happy place.  

John about to get food...always a happy occasion.  

Subs for lunch.....





After lunch it was time for activities.
Horseback riding
High Ropes
Archery
BMX Biking
Skateboarding
And training with THE FIDGETS

Here's one group ready to go horseback riding.  

Rosy with her horse.  


Joy. 

Tobie...hey, is your horse smiling too....or is that a smirk?  

Megan D


Rachel.

Miranda

Megan H....I don't think she's ridden before.....

Awe, that's sweet.  
Designed to have your horse obey you, I presume?  

Time to get ready to mount up.  



Have fun Megan H


Bye Bye....








And they're off......





Jeannine walked with them to get pictures..


Here they are on the trail. 





Doing ok Megan H? 


Hmmmm...enjoying yourself....?  









Here's Reuben BMX biking.....

Christine decided she would try High roping
(she's braver than I am).



Off to a good start.....



Almost over that first bar....



....and that was enough....



She's still happy, and did more than I'd do.  



Chris B up in the trees.  


Chris H at the top of one course.  I think he was supposed to help Christine on the course...hmmmmm


Father/Daughter time.  



Hey Laura. 



Danny boy.....




Amy waiting her turn.  




Rosy doing Archery.  



Miranda made it look easy. 





Miranda, Tobie, and Megan H taking some time out to rest.  Horseback riding can be tiring.....




Megan D, the pro.  




Steady now.......



Rachel....



Miranda.....Front shot.......



Miranda......Back shot......


Now where did those arrows go?  

David enjoying the trails on the bikes.  




Dan and Kevin fighting it out on the pole.  
Well, it wasn't much of a fight....
Dan fell before Kevin could really attack. 


Dan coming down.  




The be-layer trying to keep on the ground as she let's Dan down...good thing they are tied to that post. : ) 




Time for Amy and Laura to go up the course.  










It's harder than it looks......






Laura makes it first......




Amy's almost there....








Way to go Amy......
A sense of accomplishment......



On to entry #3.........
