CAMP 2019

Slowly I get pulled up high into the trees. Every inch higher the harness grasps onto my neck and pinches it so hard I can barely breathe. The anticipation builds as I hang helplessly above the ground waiting for him to pull the rope... 3...2...1 swish, I swoop down at a cheetahs pace. My heart dropped to the bottom of my stomach and a short but deafening scream came out of my mouth. I sway back and forth for a while. The grip on my neck released and a sigh of relief came over me. " Do you want another go?" bill said. I thought to myself. Do I really want to be choked

another time? Its my last camp, I thought to myself. Ill take a chance. I slowly get pulled up one more time and the nerves come fluttering to me once again. The harness tightens and I cant breathe for a few seconds more. I fall and swoop up towards the towering trees above. I was instantly relieved as I stepped down the 8 step ladder. My feet hit the ground. I did it!
