I have the privilege of having a grandfather for a hero. I am always amazed at the integrity of his character, his genuine love for others, and his tireless pursuit of Jesus. He has never failed to encourage me or give me good advice. He helped me financially while I was in college. I watched him take in and raise my cousins when they needed someone to take care of them. I learned how to be a man after God’s own heart by watching my grandfather. More than anything he has been the model of patience and character. He is the wisest and kindest man I think I have ever known. (more…)

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009New for 2009 - THE BLOB and more…
Wednesday, February 18th, 2009The summer is right around the corner and we are getting so excited about another fabulous camp season. Rambo and I have been hard at work planning some new and exciting things for this summer, and one of our biggest announcements has to be the addition of The Blob. For those of you who don’t know what a Blob is I will try to explain. Basically, its a huge waterfront toy that sort of looks like a big bag of air. One camper anxiously sits atop the “bag” while another camper launches off of a 15 ft platform and lands on the Blob below. Physics take over and the camper who was sitting on the blob is catapolted up into the air and out into the lake. Campers and staff alike will find this to be a huge hit and great addition to Adams Lake.
In other summer news, we are putting together the final pieces of our Hero II program. This program will be a fairly intensive leadership training camp experience for select campers who are rising 11th graders. If you fall into that category, you should receive an info pack shortly, but feel free to call us for more information on how to apply for this program. It will be offered in the 13-day sessions and will be open to a limited number of participants. So, for all of you who thought you were aging out of camp, keep your eyes open for this option.
Stay tuned for more news about this summer. We will be announcing our theme shortly as well as a few other additions.
