June 15th - 17th 2010

Over the years we have a number of adults who have commented, “why do kids get to have all the fun - why don’t you have camp for adults too.” We have scheduled a four day camp that will include a variety of “camp” activities, plus some special programs geared toward adults. All of the activities will be optional, so that you can take advantage of as much “camp life” as you want, or just take some time to read, relax and nap in the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Here are just a few of the activities from past camps.... daily book study, bird watching, gourmet grilling, Bible study, visit to the Callaway llama farm, game night, “Old Time Sing Along” singing, boating on Philpott Lake, worship, live mountain music and dancing, campfi re, time to visit with our summer staff and youth campers, Appalachian basket making, afternoon swim, photography workshop, outdoor games, a light hike at Smart View, and lots more.

All these activities are in addition to the opportunity to take on the physical and mental challenges of the high ropes course, some team initiatives to test your problem- solving and cooperative skills. This time away at camp will be fun and relaxing. We also promise to have better than “camp food.” We encourage you to invite your friends and neighbors! This program is open to anyone who is 50 years old (“more or less”).
