Dry Gulch Kids Camp


Sunday, another group of kids and sponsors departed for Oklahoma. The destination: Dry Gulch, U.S.A., one of the best (if not the best!) kids camp in the entire nation. This was our biggest group ever, with 74 kids and 7 sponsors. Kids/sponsors were from both Englewood Ministries and Turning Point Church.

Dry Gulch is unmatched in facilities, staff, and activities. The evening chapel services are well planned and creative times of spiritual growth. Our son always comes home loving the theme song! This year's theme is "An Unforgettable Journey". Dry Gulch is a lesson in ministry excellence.

Brian and I never went to a youth or kids camp growing up. But we realize, without a doubt, that a camp-type, away from home experience is such an important part of the spiritual development of a student. Later this week, I'll blog about the benefits of camp.

Check out this highlight video to see a little bit of what our kids will be experiencing this week:
