Several Things...

First, a big thanks to everyone who came and participated in our lock in. I personally had a lot of fun, and I hope you enjoyed it, too. To my surprise, the only person I really had to keep a close eye on was Jackie Miller. Everyone else was very well behaved. It seems that most of you can't last much past 2AM, though perhaps being in school is tiring you out a bit. :-) Hannah claims she can stay up all night with no problem, so next year we'll see if she's bluffing or not.

Secondly, a big thanks to the Duke family for having us over last night for SNAC. They have an incredible place to hang out. I was also shocked to learn that Mr. Pooh is the former Memphis, TN ping pong champion. He even beat out those little Chinese guys who do nothing besides play ping pong! Needless to say, he finished me off fairly easily in the game we played. I intend to beat him eventually. Somehow.

We have a lot more important events coming up!

• September 3rd - Teen OHYG! Olympics. We'll have a series of relay games. This is on Labor Day, and should be a lot of fun.
  
  
• September 9th - Grandparents Reception. Please invite your parents to come out on Sept. 9th. I *think* the times are between 4:30-6:00pm. We want all of you guys to help serve your grandparents refreshments and let them know you love and appreciate them.
  
  
• September 23rd - Camp Reunion & Video. This will be our second SNAC for the month. We will watch the camp video, and also present the plaques to those who were honored this year. Anyone who went to camp is invited to come; not just teens.
  
  
• September 30th - Teen Murder Mystery. Officer Norris (Steele) is helping us get this together. We will all be working to solve a "murder" that will have happened right here in the Old Hickory Village! This is a 5th Sunday, so we will get started some time after the second worship service. I'll get you more details closer to time.
