Hey Campers!  Join us for a relaxing two-night camp out on Bethel's river front property! 

This is an invitation to dry camp with your tent and/or vehicle based camper or RV.  Friends are welcome to join...FIREWORKS are not!

Set up camp on Friday, July 4th, after 4pm and relax throughout the evening with your neighbors.  Enjoy Saturday afternoon activities such as pickle ball, frisbee golf, and basketball! After dinner (on your own), walk over to the church campus for our Outdoor Worship Concert at 7pm.  Head over to the church campus at 8:30am on Sunday morning for Kids Zone inflatables and swing chair ride, followed by our Outdoor Gathering at 9:30am (don’t forget your lawn chair!).  A free BBQ lunch and River Water Baptisms at the river's edge will close out the weekend festivities!  

Please plan to tidy up/secure your campsite prior to Sunday's Gathering and pull out of the campsite sometime after Water Baptisms have concluded.

Bring your own:

• Camp stove to cook on (If you do not have one, you may ask camp hosts to borrow, please do so at time of registration.)

• Dinner & breakfast food for you and your party (food storage if necessary)

• Water for drinking, cooking & cleaning (nearest water is at church building)

• Garbage bags (dumpster in church parking lot)
