Parents . . . drop your children off at the camp at 4:00 p.m., go to church for supper and evening service, come back and pick them up at 7:00 p.m. Deanna and Denise will have lots of games for the younger children while BYF leaders will have plenty challenging games and relays for the youth. Deanna asks children K - Grade 5 to dress up in their favorite Biblical costume such as Mary, Joseph, Angel, Noah, Animals, etc . . .(NO SATAN!)

So, all you Club and BYF members don't forget to mark your calendar for this FUN FALL EVENT! There will be a special surprise in store if the weather cooperates!
