ICHTHUS Bound

I saw the kids off at 8:00 this morning. They are now ICHTHUS bound. For those of you that do not know what ICHTHUS is it is an annual Christan music festival in Wilmore Kentucky that has been going on for 38 years. It is one of the highlights of the year for Caleb, Jordan, cousin Allen, and the rest of the group. Eight youth and 4 wonderful chaperons are in route today.
It is sort of like a Christan "Woodstock". The festival is held on the grounds of a 100 acre farm where the groups camp out (no electric, no water) for 5 days. Some of the best Christan bands preform at ICHTHUS each year. This years big names include Toby Mac, Casting Crowns, Skillet, Jeremy Camp and David Crowder just to name a few. Over the whole festival there are 100 performances and speakers.
Have fun, be safe, we'll see you when you get home Sunday!

Our kids have gone to a similar one in NE Ohio called ALIVE. We went out for a day a few years ago. Saw Relient K among others. It was a good time - our son camped out the week with friends his senior year.
One word: SUNSCREEN!
