Counselors Greatly Needed; 40th Anniversary Celebration of CCC

Counselors Greatly needed: Please consider counseling this summer. See http://www.uppermidwestcc.org/ministries_camp.html


40th Anniversary and Celebration Party at the Christian Conference Center (McCague Memorial Grounds) an overwhelming success

More than 250 people came out to celebrate this historic and exciting moment in the life of the Christian Conference Center on April 25th. On that one day there were no fewer than 8 decades of camping represented. Sitting together in the outdoor chapel, individuals who first dreamed and funded the original establishment of this holy ground to the most recent generation making their way through Jr Camps, shared stories of why we do this ministry together! Thank you for all the ministry we do together!

New Tradition: We established a new tradition for camp at the 40th birthday. We already give counselors who serve 5 years a blue/green jacket and for 10 years a maroon jacket. Now for those who serve for 20 or more years we now give a black jacket. Look for all these jackets throughout the region. Take time to ask them to tell you stories about camp.
