It is officially JUNE!  Which to many of you means school is out, summer is beginning!  For your friends at Camp Hammer it means, CAMP IS STARTING!  We are in the final weeks of preparing Camp, and getting ready to hang out with all sorts of incredible young people this summer.  In the recent weeks we have built a Castle, a new rec shed, re-vamped the BMX course, FILLED the pond, opened the pool, and so much more.  Summer is upon us, and we are realizing why we love Camp Hammer so much.  It is truly incredible how things change when summer is near.  The weather obviously changes, but with that so do all sorts of other things.  For instance, when the weather changes, the sun hits the plant life differently, and creates an array of incredible new scents.  This is my favorite indicator that summer is near.  Walking through Camp and smelling the unbelievably fresh air of the Redwoods.  If you have spent time at Camp in the summer you know exactly what I am talking about.  Soon, the Snack Shack will be stocked, the Craft Shack will be open, the feild will be played on, the pond will be “funoed” in, the swings will be swung on, the dining hall will be eaten in, DK will be filled with music, and the forest surrounding Camp Hammer will be filled with laughter of children learning about their creator.  It is summer.  Can’t wait to see you!

Hey Camp Family!

I hope this post finds you well.  Summer is right around the corner, and we are checking in to make sure you are up to date on all the incredible things going on at Camp this summer.  Here are a few of the highlights to look for in 2009.

Invisible Children

Camp Hammer is partnering with an incredible organization called Invisible Children this summer.  I.C. is a non-profit based out of San Diego that is helping raise awareness of all of the injustice taking place in Uganda.  They will be coming to Camp on monday of every week all summer to share about their organization and talk about how we can all be involved in helping the children of Uganda be free from fear.  It is truly an amazing organization that has some great things to share.  Don’t miss them this summer!  You can also learn more at invisiblechildren.com!

These are just a couple highlights among many.  Camp Hammer will have all of the crazy fun team-comps, night games and free time activites that you can think of, as well as incredible speakers and music, food, and relationships!  2009 is going to be an incredible summer!
