Along with Navigators Camp, we also had Resident Camp A here the week of June 14-18. This was a great group of kids ages 9-11, and they helped us start the summer off well! Enjoy these pictures of some of the fun moments during their camp week. (post 3 of 3)

The week of June 14-18 was our first camp session, and it included two camps: a resident camp and our special Navigators Camp. Navigators is unique in that it`s designed to be a blend of camp fun and leadership training for older teens, feeding directly into our LIT program: several of our Navigators campers will be back as junior staff later in the summer. Our small group of Navigators joined in some of the resident camp activities, taking on a sort of "big brother" role for the younger campers. I think you can tell from these pictures that the interactions were enjoyed by all!

We unfortunately have had to cancel our Family Camp due to low enrollment. But on the bright side, that means we can open July 3-5 to ANYONE who is looking for a peaceful campground for the holiday weekend! We have camping cabins and campsites for tents or RVs available.
The pool will be open on Saturday afternoon, and on Sunday morning there will be a worship service in the Tabernacle that all our guests are invited to join. Rebecca Tyson, pastor of Trinity UCC in Timberville, was slated to be the speaker for Family Camp, and her whole church will be gathering in the Tab on July 5 for their Sunday service.

Summer camp time is here! This past week was staff training, and this wonderful bunch were here to learn what they need to do their jobs well, and to bond as a team. We`re excited about this group, and the handful of other staff who will be joining us later in the summer. Please keep our summer staff in your prayers as our first group of campers come tomorrow!
