"Bobber Bill" gives this month's Eyewitness News report on summer youth and family camps, all while ziplining. We're excited for a great summer. Check it out!
Camp
Springs into Summer
A record Men's Advance! (124!). A monster Father- Son (168!). A best ever Mother-Daughter (198!). A first-ever Young Adult Retreat (92!). And a super sweet Senior Adult Retreat (46!) and Senior Day (190!). Add it all up and it's the most active spring since 1999 and the second biggest ever. Glory to God! Thanks for coming. And thanks for praying! Bring on the kids!!
10...9...8...The countdown to the "funnest fun!" has begun! Over 190 children grades 3-6 are signed up for Super Kids 1, Camp's biggest blast off ever!. 7...6...5....With registrations up 100 over last year, the experience on the great "Galactic Adventure!" will be out of this world! Our kid-crazy, Jesus-loving summer staff of 45 hopes to lead 1700 kids on a "Quest for Truth!" into God's vast creation as well into His Word. 4...3...2... Buckle in and enjoy the ride! 1...Blast Off!
It's a proven fact. To be fully enjoyed, the Camp experience should be shared with a friend. And each year, many kids do as a part of the "Share Camp Bonus" program. Camp says a big "thank you" to returning campers who invite and bring along a friend brand new to Camp Lebanon by giving each camper a 2016 summer theme t-shirt. How cool is that! (NOTE: Campers must attend same session and request the Bonus.)
The Camp Lebanon Promise
Printed in the summer brochure is a very significant statement:
"It is important that all kids and families that want to come are able to come regardless of finances." Thanks to many friends and donors, Camp was able to keep this promise in providing over $35,000 scholarship grants in 2015. With attendance and requests both on the rise, the need for the upcoming summer will never be greater. Considering the amazing opportunities we have to share the love and life of Christ, we'll be happy to fulfill our promise. To make a scholarship donation,

ONE GIRL'S STORY:
"I work part time while I am in school, and my family is not in a financial position to pay for camp. Since I am paying on my own, I am in need of a partial scholarship. I discovered my faith at Camp Lebanon my first year in 2011 and have been back every year since. Camp is the holiest place in my life. It's a place that has rooted me in faith and raised me into the woman of God I am today. Before I head off to college this fall, I hope to have one last week with my brothers and sisters at this amazing place."

SWEAT Team, Service Crew & LIT!
D3 is Camp Lebanon's discipleship and training program. It combines three existing programs into one dynamic training track for students who want to serve Jesus along side other youth. You can expect solid Biblical teaching, hands on ministry experience, and Camp Lebanon fun. There are three stages of D3: SWEAT Team, Service Crew, and Leaders In Training.
What a strange pair of socks you're wearing! One is blue with white stripes and one is red with polka dots.
Camper: Yeah, it is strange. What's cool, is I have another pair in my suitcase just like it!

Abigail Nagy - "Sista' Switzerland"
Abigail's move to Camp Lebanon was just the beginning of another exciting season in her life and she is thrilled to see God at work here. Having grown up in camp ministry, she enjoys discovering "camp connections" as God brings people together and works through them to tell His Story. She took the time to answer sixteen Get-To-Know-You questions.
Why settle for a three-day weekend (they're a blast, too!) when you can supersize the "funnest fun" with a five-night, six-day week of relaxed adventures?
