Letters to Camp from near and far!




Every once in a while we will share some of the cards, notes and letters 
that might be of interest to the North Woods community.

So spend your Rest Hour wisely and write to camp!


What is Camp?




We might say that camp is a "place."  We would covet for every camper green woods, lakes, bird calls, quiet sunsets - that his young heart may be warmly aware of a Creator who has made "all things beautiful in their time."  But camp is more than a place.

We might say that camp is a "plan."  We would covet for every camper a program thoroughly alive at every step - not too crowded for comfort, yet abounding in opportunities for zestful adventuring all through each day.  Yet camp is more than a plan.


Camp is what happens inside the campers - what they take home with them in their memories, in their new purposes, in their improved or newly-acquired skills, in their friendships, in their appreciations, in their at-homeness with themselves and their physical universe and all others, in their awareness of a power beyond themselves of His way for the world.  That's what camp is.
