What’s Going On!

Author: abradford

Hey Friends!  I hope this post finds you well!  Summer has been over for a few weeks now, and we are gearing up for a busy Fall.  This weekend we will be welcoming the Twin Lakes Church Family Camp!  We are so excited to have our Church family up in the Redwoods with us for a few days!  TLC Family Camp is our largest camp of the year, so we are busy this week prepping the grounds.

Also coming up we will begin our Future Life Season!  “What is a Future Life?” you might ask.  Well, let me tell you!  Future Life Retreats are basically a mini-summer camp for schools or youth groups.  This fall we will be hosting schools from all over the Bay Area, and Santa Cruz County.

Camp Hammer also hosts weekend retreats for all kinds of groups (Church, Mens, Womens, Youth, etc) during the year.  We would love to host you as well!  We are an exclusive use retreat center, which means you get all 99 acres of these Redwoods to yourself for a few days!  We also offer some of the best pricing options around!

If you are interested in hearing more about these kinds of retreats, call our front office! (831.338.3200)

Lastly, we are still raising money for our Apostle Lodge Deck.  The project has been completed, and was used this past summer, and will continue to be used for years to come!  We are Close to having the funds to pay for it completely, and would love any support you can offer!  Thanks so much.  Check back for another blog next week!

Sincerely,

Camp Hammer Staff

Things to Look Forward To.

Hey Friends and Family!  It is another wonderful Friday here at Camp Hammer.  Unbelievable to think that it is officially Spring and that April is just around the corner!  In the coming weeks a lot of great things are going on!  We have had the Twin Lakes Church Men’s Ministry up here for the last several weekends working on the Cedar/Apostle Lodge Deck, and it looks incredible.  What an amazing blessing it will be to the generations of campers who will get to enjoy it!  We are still raising funds for the project, but God has been entirely faithful through the project, and his provision is evident!

Now for some really exciting news!  In the coming weeks we are starting all of the Program Projects for this upcoming summer!  We will start with the construction of Camp Hammer’s very first 9-hole Miniature Golf Course.  As of right now we haven’t named the course yet, so if you have suggestions, be sure to comment and let us know what you think the name should be!  It is going to be awesome.  I can’t wait to play put-put with the Campers!  The next project will be the filling of our pond.  We have been so blessed this year with the amount of rain that has come in, and as far as we can see, there should be no problems filling the pond again this year for all to enjoy!  Third, we will be putting together a brand new basketball hoop kindly donated to Camp Hammer!  So for at least a little while we will have a basketball hoop that doesn’t have a terribly flimsy rim!  It will allow for some great basketball games, and knockout competitions this summer!  Lastly, we are going to begin construction of our set for this years skit.  If you haven’t already done the word search puzzle in this years brochure, you better do it now to find out what this years theme is!  So many exciting things going on in these next few months that it is hard to contain my excitement!

Next topic is our scholarships.  Every year Camp offers scholarships to families or students who normally wouldn’t be able to attend camp for financial reasons.  Each summer we are incredibly blessed by men and women who want to support our ministry in this way!  If donating to our scholarship fund is something that you feel led to doing, please check out our “Give” section or call our front office (831.338.3200 x10) for more information!  Our hope is that any camper who wants to attend Camp Hammer, is able to, and that money would never be a hindrance to making that happen.  If you don’t feel led to give financially, or even if you do, please take time to pray for this portion of our ministry here!

Finally, if you haven’t registered yet, take some time in the next few days and register!  All that is required upon registration is a $50.00 deposit!  Camp is such an amazing experience where kids can be kids and grow to know a loving savior!  You can register by clicking on the “Register Now” tab on our home page!  This is going to be an incredible summer of laughing, loving, learning, and playing!  Don’t miss it!

Love. Peace.
