Intermediate Deans
Welcome to Intermediates, we are looking forward to another great week at Camp Luther this year. The theme for Camp Luther 2012 is Spirit Life. For those who have been to Camp Luther before you know the “Spirit” is alive and well every year at Camp. Our Counselors are always eager and excited to welcome the campers to Intermediate Camp and to make sure each camper is SPIRIT filled, SPIRIT driven and ready to carry that same SPIRIT back home to our families and friends
Our Confirmation and Camp Course classes were the talk of Camp last year and once again our teachers are preparing daily classes to help you understand each day’s scripture and God’s message. To take this portion of camp to another level we need YOU because it takes YOU to make it work. The evening vesper services are held in beautiful scenic settings and our activities help reinforce the daily theme as well.
Our day will begin with morning worship, plenty of music and singing to get the blood pumping. Breakfast will follow, then cabin clean up before classes. (We will once again be judging cabin cleanliness and the messiest cabin will be dismissed last at assembly!) Classes will be held between 9am and 12pm each day. After Lunch an afternoon assembly will be held in the Bull Pen (no bulls present so don’t worry). At assembly we will have announcements about various activities, handout mail and dismiss for free time.
One of the highlights of Camp Luther is the Five O’clock News where there is singing, camper performances, and other interesting recaps of the day. Dinner follows the News each day and then we gather for an evening vesper service to reflect God’s love and our faith.
Evening activities are the fun ending to a great day and this year’s line-up is:
- Monday-Olympics- Prepare to get wet, trust your teammates and use teamwork to WIN
- Tuesday-Vespers at the Lake and surprise activity
- Wednesday-Hot Dog Roast, Pool Party
- Thursday-Senior Dance (Intermediates attend this too!!)
- Friday-Directory signing and slide show to reflect on your week at camp
Whether you are a first year camper or are a return camper, you will find that the staff and campers in the Intermediate program will create memories and develop friendships that will last a lifetime.
Intermediate camp is a lot of fun but it also challenges each camper to learn more about themselves and their own faith walk. When we leave on Saturday we will be counting the days until next year’s Camp and that time when we all gather again in the Hills of Camp Luther!
Hope to see you at Camp Luther this year and for many years to come.
Peace and Love,
Tim and Robyn Rice
