We were able to collectively complete many projects that have been on our to-do list all winter! (click the images to see the full-size versions)

Planting Flowers to make a great first impression when new people enter camp:

Picking up sticks and branches to keep campers safe:

Creating a new path within the Teams Course so that groups can use the elements more effectively:

Building a new Pioneer-era cabin to replace and improve upon the Outdoor Education programs:

Simply making new friends and having a good time:

All of these are important and worthy endeavors that volunteers participated in this weekend! 

Pass this along to someone if you recognized them in a photo… and plan to join us in the fall if you can! Partner Service Day is always a great time!

It’s a great way to model volunteering with your family and an opportunity to introduce your friends to camp. Come for the day or for as much as your schedule will allow.
We meet at 9am in the Lake Village parking lot where we learn about the different projects and then divide and conquer.
  • Planting Spring Flowers
  • Working on the Pioneer Cabin
  • Clearing the Teams Course trails (and possibly doing our own activity!)
  • Cutting Vines off trees
  • Taking the fence down on Tecumseh Bend

Welcome, Christ the King!

Camp Culture, Outdoor Education

During this holiday season, make sure to welcome Christ the King into your lives at every opportunity.

 

This fall, we welcomed an aptly-named school into camp for an Outdoor Education trip:

Camp Entrance Sign: Christ the King

Just about every morning we are greeted by a new sunrise that boldly proclaims God’s handiwork.

What are some of the ways that you welcome Christ the King into your life? Where do you see his handiwork at camp or home?
