A Birthday Surprise!

Here at Camp Rising Sun, we like to go big for birthdays.  But no "Pie in the Face" could ever compare to the surprise that this camper received on her special day!

We "tried" to celebrate during morning assembly but mysteriously "ran out of shaving cream".  The truth is, we had plenty of shaving cream!  But we just had to wait because there was a much better present on its way!
This afternoon, we had a super special assembly where this camper was surprised by her mom and brother, as well as some beautiful birthday balloons!  Just as everyone was preparing to sing "Happy Birthday", Amber decided that we might need just one more helper... her dad!


Major Murray Reefer just returned from a four-month deployment in Afghanistan.  His arrival at camp was the perfect birthday present for his daughter! This will definitely be a day to remember for all involved.  Welcome home!
