BOOTH COLLEGE OF MISSION SPORTS FLOP

BCM made it to Taupo to compete in the North Island Salvation Army's Sports day.

We managed to get together 2 teams, who both played in the amateur league. Our teams were called the "All Booths" and "Booth's Army" - I was in Booth's Army.

We played Netball...
We played soccer...
We played touch rugby and volley ball too...
But my team, Booth's Army came very last out of 41 teams and we won the wooden spoon.
Oh well, at least we brought home a trophy!

Freedom Congress in Dunedin

Well, all us cadets went to Dunedin last weekend to celebrate 125 years since the Salvation Army was established in NZ and it was a very fun weekend...

We all got to know each other very well and had some great laughs - my fijian friend Pati carried one of the motel's flanels with him wherever he went as his handkerchief, which I thought was very funny so I managed to sneak a few photos of him with his flanel...

As you can see below, he gave me a wave with the flanel during the march...

Another laugh all weekend was the fact the men had to wear their caps so I decided to wear a cap too and I must say, the girls look better in the caps than the guys do....

During the weekend, we had the chance to wave our flags but I decided it looked better as headgear - could be a new uniform look...
Below are some photos taken during our march in the main street of Dunedin - of course BCM and cadets are at the back of the march with the double decker bus...

I got to catch up with Neil & Gill and also Nigel, Christine & Joseph and Craig & Amie while I was down in Dunedin so that was great...

Isn't Joseph cute....

It was a lot of fun and I managed to stay awake and even make it to the Youth meetings at night which were a blast...

However, this week I am very tired and finding myself taking nana naps in the afternoon when I should be studying....
