We have had another great week of camp. Junior I was a success with great weather (answer to prayer), several salvations and decisions for God.

We are looking forward to a great family week this week starting with family focus and ending with Camp Meeting/Staff Reunion.

Pray that we will glorify God in our 35th anniversary!

We are happy to say that all the summer staff has arrived and that the first week of staff training has been completed.

Please pray for us as we have one more week of training in conjunction with the Whetstone/ Gemstone conferences.

Also, please pray that God will send some dry weather so that some much needed outdoor projects can be completed.

Remember, Junior I starts June 22.

There is proposed new legislation called the

Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection Act (H. R. 980).

In summary this bill expands the amount of wilderness area in proximity to our camp’s private property, limiting access to forest land that would become wilderness if this bill were passed.

The potential also exists for access to be limited to private properties within these wilderness areas. Please pray that God will protect the camp.

Please contact your house representative to vote “no” on H. R. 980.

Please register for Men’s reatreat by Thursday, February 19th. Although we have received several registrations, there are still many beds avaliable. Snow conditions are good this year, and we are looking forward to what Dr. Greg Huffman has for us from the Word of God.

With the arrival of some snow (and a new camp camera!) we decided to put up a few new pictures of the new lodge. Please pray for us as we use the building this winter and continue with the winter retreats this weekend. Couples retreats start first then men’s and teen reatreat. Thank you for your prayers.

Couples’ I is full!

Couples’ II has three openings left!

Our speaker for the couples’ reatreats is Dr. Greg Huffman.

Our goal was to see the Lodge expansion exterior completed by winter.  We were able to see this done with the help of several volunteers and a work group from Georgia.  We thank the Lord that as we go into this winter season our focus can be on the interior and the finances needed for it’s completion.  The pictures below are the latest we have of the Lodge expansion.
