Pack Attack Day

Today is the Pack Attack! The packs have their cheers, their costumes and are ready to cheer each other on. It is going to be a great day at Covenant Pines. The weather is good and God has been doing amazing things in the lives of campers and staff. After all of the craziness of the day, campers and staff get to kick back and enjoy each others company at Pines Fest this evening. It's a time to relax, talk, throw a frisbee and enjoy the beautiful surroundings God has blessed us with here at Covenant Pines.

2011 Jr High 2

The Pack Attack is fast approaching!!! For those of you who don't know, one of the highlights at Jr High camp at Covenant Pines is the Pack Attack. It is a giant relay race that covers the entire territory of Covenant Pines. The best part is that it is fun. The saying is, if the pack attack stops being fun we stop having the pack attack. The race includes all sorts of fun challenges like canoeing, biking, trivia, speed beading, slushy drinking, archery and more. There is something for everyone. What is probably more fun is that the campers find out their pack early in the week and spend time prepping for the big event with costumes and cheers. The dining hall is often filled with various chants from the different teams. Stay tuned for the results! And thanks for the continued prayers and support!

2011 Jr High 2

We are off to another week at camp! Jr High 2 is under way and the weather is excellent. We are excited to see God working in the lives of these Jr highers. Please continue to pray for our staff as they work with the kids. The Summer is nearly over! Hard to believe, but true! We hope to see you at camp. And as always, keep up with us on Facebook.com/covenantpines for pictures of the action.

2011 Trailblazer 2

Apparently Summer decided to show up. The weather is drastically different from what it was at the beginning of June but we'll take it. This week has been good so far. The kids are having lots of fun at the beach, playing big games and singing songs at worship. We hope God has changes in store for our campers and staff like the change in the weather. Thanks for the continued prayers and support. God bless!

Trailblazer 2

We are getting ready for another awesome week at camp! It will be warm but there are plenty of ways to cool down at camp. The waterfront activities will be well utilized this week. It is a nice change from the cool start we had to Summer. Please pray for our staff, campers and volunteers. We are excited for the things God is doing this Summer!

End of Trailblazer Beginning of Jr High

Sunday brought the end of Trailblazer 1. It was a great week filled with energetic kids, staff and lots of fun and learning. Sunday also brought a brief rest for the staff before Jr Highers arrive Monday morning.
There was also a bit of excitement Sunday night when the power went out for a while. Thankfully the power was restored and things are ready to go for this week!

2011 Trailblazer 1

Today is another gorgeous, sunny day at Covenant Pines. We are in our second day of Trailblazer 1 camp and this are going well. It was a crazy first day, full of fun, swimming, singing and big games. Today won't be any different. We appreciate the continued prayers and support! God bless!

Trailblazer 1

After a long stretch of non-stop camp the staff finally got a break over the July 4th weekend. The weather has been gorgeous and it finally feels like Summer. Today marks the start of another week of camp as we await the arrival of our Trailblazers. It is bound to be an exciting and energy filled week and we look forward to what God will be doing in the lives of the campers and staff!

July Family Camp

We are right in the middle of July Family Camp and it finally feels like Summer. Yesterday was hot and sunny, a welcome change from the unseasonably cold weather we had been having. Relief from the heat and humidity came in the form of a thunder storm in the evening. Although the lightning prevented anyone from going onto the lake, some people took the opportunity to sit on the shore and watch the storm slowly roll in. It is an amazing sight to watch the lightning in the distance, listen to the thunder booming across the sky and to realize just how small we are in this world of our creator. Sometimes it takes a trip to camp to appreciate those moments.

Perhaps there will be more of those moments to come. Today is another sunny day and we will see what God has in store for us.
