There's still time to register for a camp experience at your United Methodist camps this summer.  The camps are preparing for you to enjoy a time away.  Work Days have been set at each of the camps: Lake Poinsett Camp May 20, Storm Mountain Camp in late May or call the camp, Wesley Acres Camp May 13 and 20.  So get your work clothes and get ready to roll up your sleeves and head to the camp nearest you to help get ready for the 2017 summer camping season.

There are several new things available at your United Methodist camps this summer.  Lake Poinsett will soon have a new building ready to replace cabins 2, 3 and 4.  The new retreat center will be able to host 80 people. The contractor will be finished within a couple of weeks and volunteers from out of state are headed to Lake Poinsett to put on the finishing touches.

Storm Mountain has a new face in guest services, Sean Binder.  Sean is a familiar face to folks in the Dakotas Conference; he has served the camping ministry at Lake Poinsett and Wesley Acres.  He has also helped out with the production of Annual Conference. Sean is originally from Spearfish, South Dakota and a member of the United Methodist Church there.

Wesley Acres is hosting a new camp this summer called “Dis-Cycle-ship Camp.”  The camp will allow adults to challenge themselves on the open road as well as expanding their faith. The three-day camp will allow people to cycle and grow faith and relationship with others passionate about Jesus Christ and cycling.

Make plans to see new places and new people, experience new camps and grow in your love of God at your United Methodist camps.  Click here for the latest newsletter from the Camp and Retreat Ministry of the Dakotas-Minnesota Area.
