On August 19, as a ministry of Velocity (the young adult ministry here) we made a meal for the dorm dwellers on the base. I volunteered to do the cooking for this meal (I had wonderful help too). We were told we could have around 120, so that is what I prepared for. We ended up having around 60 which is still a good turnout. The theme was Hawaiian Plate Lunch. The menu was: kalua pig, rice, macaroni salad (Hawaiian style) and fruit. Chaplain Carollo also bought a nice cake to go with it.
The airmen’s center got decorated too. I think everyone enjoyed the food and had a great time.
It was nice to visit with Krissy in between bites.
A few days later Velocity put on “Bubba Country”. About 30 of us participated. We dressed up and rode in an Air Force bus (the closest we could get to a school bus) to Boise.
We ate at Donnie Mac’s Trailer Park Cuisine…a very interesting place.
They serve Spaghettios in the can.
Unique flower pots.
Classy….
Interesting food….
Comfortable furniture….
After dinner, we went to Julia Davis Park and played “redneck games” (toilet lid horseshoes, fishing pole casting, lassoeing the critter, etc.) Dee did a great job of putting all of that together.
Great prizes too!
Nancy won the prize for the best costume. We unfortunately had to leave early because a massive wind storm caused huge branches near us to come crashing down. Still, it was a great event. We had folks come who hadn’t come to any of our other chapel programs. What next? We’re tossing around an Indiana Jones theme. We’ll see.
