Tin cup was Mt. Extreme. “Go for the Goal” clipboard was from 1996 (the year before WWGN Stampede in ’97). I, too, am curious about the presence of the atom ball, that one is the only item in the picture that seems out of place to me.
Jane- I believe the three books are anthologies of the history of VBS, bound by a collection of years. I tried to zoom in but it pixilates too much to read if I get too close.
Jane, personally, I wouldn’t read too much into the teapot. Just like the airplane on top of the Rickshaw Rally box, not everything in this display was “official” LifeWay VBS merch. It may just be a souvenir from 2003, when Kingdom Caper was the theme.
The patch was from Mt. Extreme. I have one among my collection of buttons. So was the tin cup (on top of the recipe box) from Mt. Extreme.
Deborah, the foam thing in front of the penguin, is a airplane from this years VBS. Behind the googles, I can see VBS in red, a purple looking mountain, something green like grass, and a yellow ring around part of it. We’ve had patches before. Is this one new?
Read on facebook, the patch behind the googles was from a past theme (I think it was Artic Edge). Question: Why is Beach Blast the only second theme here? All the others was the main theme for VBS. And if you look on fb where you see the video’s and clues, they list 16 of past vbs themes and Beach Blast is not one of them. I may be thinking too hard. lol I’m ready for Monday to get here!!
I think it has something to do with timne travel (i.e. the past, present, FUTURE). a lot of clues seem to be about traveling, and getting there and then some seem to be backwards for some reason.
I am trying to find out where or how I can get a list of previous years theme’s! Can you help me out? I have found them back to 2003 but I would like to find previous years too. I have had people asking so we can put years to pictures.

don’t see amazon outfitters (2002) or good news ocean odyssey (2000) or truth trackers (2001) or rambling road trip(2005)
Vicki Rigsby says
I don’t believe #28 was on the Beach Blast picture originally, and I don’t remember an atom ball being used in previous years. Hmmm….?
Elizabeth says
I don’t remember the tin cup. Unless that was from Saddle Ridge Ranch…
Noah says
It is a Sports Camp VBS isn’t it?
Stephanie Deyo says
I’m sticking with England with plenty of tea and scones 🙂
Melissa Breaux says
Olympics – don’t remember the “Go for the Goal” clip board. or a sports camp
leisa Bentley says
I would love a sports theme again!
wanda slade says
what about a baloon ride in New Zealand
Jane Daniel says
I was also wondering about the clip board and the atom ball. What are the 3 books? I’ve seen 2 of them in video #1 and #3.

That I <3 VBS On That Block Is Backwards, VBS 2013 Is Gonna Be A Backwards Thing
annmmoore says
The I (heart) VBS thing was a stamp.
I’m going with a David and Goliath kind of theme

Pirate Theme……..arghhhh maties! Please say its a pirate theme!
Deborah says
what is the foam looking thing in front of the penguin? Atom thingy makes me think of Adam. (?)
Deborah says
There is some type of logo behind the goggles on the right.
vbsguy says
You guys are good! Books are bound copies of VBS resources from the 1960s.

Nadine says
I don’t think it’s a sports or Olympic theme. And I am thinking it is retro – something in the 60’s – resources, atom, etc

The Red phone booth that looks like a teapot is kinda courious to me… Kingdom Kaper was few years back, but don’t remember this being from it.

I was also puzzled about the teapot. I remember the phone booth, but not it being a teapot.
