NORTHERN PINES FAMILY CAMP
Blend grandparents, moms, dads, children, and friends of all ages, add woods, a beautiful lake, worship, activities, and campfires, simmer for six days. This is the recipe for Family Camp II at Northern Pines.

GRANDCHILD/GRANDPARENT CAMP
Grandparents, be a part of this special time together with your grandkids. The relaxing pace allows you a variety of options for quiet time, fun and fellowship.

LAKE KORONIS FAMILY CAMP
Provide a setting - a camping experience for the whole family and a place for the family to enjoy a week of activities together. We want families to attend as family units, with both parents in attendance for the entire week. We encourage single parent families to attend.

RED ROCK CAMP
At Red Rock Camp, through fellowship, worship, nurture, and mission outreach, people of all ages celebrate the saving power of Jesus Christ, hear the call to life under the Lordship of Jesus, and are encouraged toward a life of discipleship through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Red Rock Camp enjoys the participation of campers from many denominations and traditions.

Campers' Financial Assistance
There are two sources of financial assistance for children and youth who wish to go camping at Bethany. The United Methodist Women have offered some support to campers for several years. If you go camping be sure to check with them about assistance with camping charges.

Bethany also has a special fund that was established by Pastor Ric Koehn a few years ago. This money was accumulated from fund raising events and from contributions of camping supporters. This fund is administered by the Pastor. Other financial assistance may be obtained through the United Methodist Camping Office (at the Conference Office) and some camps also have funds to assist campers.

Remember, financial aid is limited and if you would like to have some help apply early to the administrators of the aid funds.
