Good News from Camp Huron – We’re back!
Hello everyone! If you know of children whose families are planning on coming but have yet to sign up, we would appreciate your reminding them to do so. The more we know how many campers we are expecting, the better we can steward our resources – particularly your generous donations and our very gifted young staff who are ready to serve!
Please do not let the cost of a week of camp be a barrier towards registration. We have bursary funds and can set up payment plans so no one has to lay out the full amount all at once. Every single child and teen is an asset to our camp ministry both now and in the future.
Please help us fill this wondrous, holy place this summer – announce, invite, phone, email, text and dm the good news of Camp Huron today!
