Spring Senior's Events
"Young at Heart" Senior Spring Retreat 2012
Spring Registration - Click Here!
Join us each Spring and Fall for four days and three nights of fellowship, worship, fantastic Bible teaching, and quiet strolls on some of Camp's trails. Geared for folks ages 55 and over, the Senior Retreat is a wonderful way to reconnect with old friends . . . and make a few new ones along the way! All denominations are welcome. Camp's "senior friendly" facilities (e.g. elevator, handicap accommodations, helpful staff) make it possible for most everyone to enjoy a visit. You'll leave having laughed a lot, and more importantly, with your walk with Christ encouraged.

Theme:
Sweeter Than Chocolate! Is there anything sweeter than a Hershey's Kiss? The famous Swiss chocolate Toblerone, perhaps? Ah, but there is something far more satisfying and eternally more lasting than the sweetest of chocolates: the words of God! One psalmist declared that His laws are sweeter than honey (apparently, chocolate was not yet invented!). Another invited us to taste and see that the Lord Himself is good! And we will! Guests will also enjoy a feast of samples . . . sweet promises from the Almighty.

While Todd loves yard work, walking, and restoring cars ('35 & '37 Chevys, '56 Ford, '67 Camero), he finds his greatest satisfaction in seeing people know and grow in Christ.

Special Guest:
Great Adventure Gospel Band They're back . . . two years older and two years sweeter! The Great Adventure Gospel Band, consisting of David and Kris Garms and six of their eight children, will treat Senior Day guests to a toe-tapping, hand-clapping "Concert of Praise." With a bluegrass sound performed in "acoustic Southern Gospel," the Band strives through their voices, instruments, and message to encourage people to "live the Word." Whether enhanced through a variety of instruments, harmonized a capella, or accompanied by piano, the Gospel songs and old hymn favorites will bless your soul! Since their first visit in May 2010 the Garms have gone full-time in singing to gatherings throughout the Midwest.
Reservations are accepted by mail or phone. If possible, please call at least one week in advance.
