When I was younger I often attended a summer camp. My favorite one had lots of outdoor activities such as archery and swimming. Have you been to summer camp?
Yeah, I went to Camp Ondessonk, a rustic outdoor catholic youth camp. You?
I was at Camp Okeechobee, which was on a lake in the woods. My favorite part was roasting marshmallows and telling stories around the campfire.
I liked Camp Ondessonk, it was a "last frontier" of sorts
That sounds like a fun place. Did you have cabins or tents at the camp? I much prefer cabins with electricity but have also gone to a tent camp.
We generally used canvas tents out there in the Shawnee National Forest
That truly is rustic. Did you have to cook your own food or was there a mess tent? That reminds me of my time in the Boy Scouts!
We cooked ourselves. If you wanted a prepared meal, you had to head into Eddyville, the nearest town
What kind of activities did you do in the camp? Were there any wild animals nearby?
Ancient Israelite cuisine
Ancient Israelite cuisine refers to the food eaten by the ancient Israelites during a period of over a thousand years, from the beginning of the Israelite presence in the Land of Israel at the beginning of the Iron Age until the Roman period. The dietary staples were bread, wine and olive oil, but also included legumes, fruits and vegetables, dairy products, fish and meat. Religious beliefs, which prohibited the consumption of certain foods, shaped the Israelite diet. There was considerable continuity in the main components

Camp St. Philip offered participants traditional camp activities such as riflery, archery, swimming, and handicrafts, as well as some unique summer camp activities such as cooking, housekeeping, and axmanship. The camp also offered a camping honor society similar to the one found at Camp Ondessonk today. Campers at St. Philip spent their nights in one of five units; Marquette, LaSalle, LaLande, Brebeuf, and Hennepin. Led by a desire for a permanent location for a Catholic youth camp,
