Session director for Senior High I camp, June 3-8, is Randal Curtis. The faith formation program during his camp will revolve around connections made through use of the new “Book of Common Prayer for Youth”.
Other highlights of this camp will include a hammock campout (don’t worry if you don’t have a hammock, we have tents for you), as well as all the regular Camp Mitchell “fun stuff” and maybe even a new surprise or two!
Ann Pollard will direct Senior High II, July 8-13. Her intention is to connect through all types of music. So bring your favorite piece of music and learn how and why music speaks to us and how God speaks to us through our favorite musical pieces. This camp will also offer all the regular Camp Mitchell fun and friends as well as a few surprises!
Please don’t miss one or both of these camps.
Senior High registration closes in two weeks on May 20th in order to have time for adequate planning and prep for both of the camps. 12 or more campers are needed for Senior High II to take place.
So, bring your friends and share “Love of God, Love of Camp, and Love of One Another.”
See you this summer!
Call us with any questions at 501-727-5451.
