2010 Summer Camp Information and Schedule

The TRA Outdoor Ministry Team wants you to know that they continue to try to provide the best, most creative faith-nurturing summer camping experiences for our youth. The best program for our youth is always their first consideration. The members of this team are led by Tom Cooley, long time TRA camp counselor and member of Monte Vista Christian Church, Albuquerque. All directors of our camps are members of this team. If you have questions for Tom or would like to share in our Outdoor Ministry, he can be reached at Thomas.Cooley@comcast.net.

This summer we are once again trying out a new venue for our Junior campers. We do this in an effort to provide the best setting for this most active age group. Fort Lone Tree near Capitan, NM specializes in providing outdoor ministry to elementary age youth. Some of the activities - supervised by the Fort Lone Tree's trained staff includes - waterslide, horses, rock wall, zip line, archery, obstacle course and more. There is a Thursday afternoon Rodeo for the kids to enjoy and a Friday Family night - in which families are invited to attend, enjoy supper and the evening's skit night, before taking campers home on Saturday morning. Our TRA volunteer counseling staff - ministers and laypeople from our TRA churches - lead the Bible study, worship and devotion times and are the "bunkhouse" counselors.

Please visit the Fort Lone Tree website to see more for yourself at http://lonetree.org/folders.asp?action=display&record=3. Or, give Junior Camp Director, Rev. Chris Boone, Pastor of First Christian Church, Monahans, a call or drop him an e-mail with questions about Fort Lone Tree and the experience waiting our junior campers this year. We are very excited about Fort Lone Tree!! Be sure and be there for the rodeo!
