Summer Youth Camps

New for 2008  --  Village Camp!!!

      The “village” program will have activities that are somewhat different than those of the regular campers.  In the village, campers will do a lot more outdoor cooking, will have more small-group devotions and evening activities, and will participate in a mountain bike excursion and a river canoe trip.  Because these activities are geared more toward older campers, the village experience will not be offered to those younger than 5^th grade.

      Although the exact design of the village structures is yet to be determined, one possibility is shown on the left.  The structure shown would house six people, and it would take four of these cabins to make up the village.  But it is still possible that the design could be somewhat different or we may build two larger structures instead.

      In order to promote a more intimate community, the village will be located near the shelterhouse, far away from the regular camper cabins.  Placing the village there allows the shelterhouse to provide space for gathering, meal preparation, and restrooms.

Awestruck Weekend             June 13-15

      The first “Awestruck Festival” was held in 2006 and was organized by former summer staff members.  We’re bringing it back in 2008 (June 13-15) to provide a camp experience for those too old to attend our regular programs.  Age limits will be those currently entering high school or having just completed high school.  It will have the feel of a high-school youth gathering, including special guest speakers and Christian bands, but will include a lot of the camp activities you have grown to know and love.  Look for more details as the plans progress.

Family Fun-Fest Retreats
