CAMPER - PARENT As you know the Summer Camp sessions all end in the morning and require a pick up between 9 and 10am by the parents. For many of you I know this requires a VERY early departure from home. This year we would like to offer a new service for you to consider. We will be offering Parent Specials at the Holy Day Inn at Hardtner Camp and Conference Center on the last night of each session except for First Camp. The Holy Day Inn is a motel type retreat facility with two twin beds per room with a private bath. Linens are provided and we would provide a light reception to meet other parents and a continental breakfast the next morning to the parents. You will be at camp to pick up your child without a long drive but be prepared for all the camp stories and songs on the way home! So a fresh start after a good nights sleep at the Inn will be awesome. Your arrival at Hardtner Camp and Conference Center would be after 7pm on the last night of your child’s session. In order to keep the camp session child oriented and because not all parents will be available we would ask that you stay at the Inn and not get involved in Camper activities that night but we will have a host or hostess to greet you at the Inn and fill you in on the week’s activities. Spaces for the Parent Special will be limited and given on a first come basis. Reservations will require full payment of the Parent Special price of $30/person (includes room, reception and continental breakfast). Feel free to contact the Office for more information.

The Camp Hardtner Camping Program continues to create an atmosphere of love and acceptance for campers, counselors and staff. This is accomplished each summer with an organized program of worship, music and recreational activities that encourages creativity, and acceptance that allows God's love to flow freely. Each summer, more than 500 young people attend the various camp sessions held at the Hardtner Camp & Conference Center. It takes many people to have a successful summer camping program, they include: • A creative Training Staff who equip the
counselors with the many skills they will need
during the summer.
Rules of Life • We are a community of daily worship and
prayer.

Counselor-in-Training (CIT) 2008 The Summer Camping Committee's goal is to bring 3 male and 3 female CIT's to the camp each summer. The camps to be worked are Jr. High 1, Primary and Jr. High 11. The CIT's will not live in the cabins. They will live in an area designated by the camp director, but will work in cabins as assistants. CIT's will not be staff. They will receive ongoing training from the camp director throughout the summer. The program will be for individuals who have just graduated from high school. CIT Training will be determined at a later date. All CIT's are required to attend this training. Training will continue through the time the CIT's are at camp. CIT's have specific assignments to perform during their time at camp. Additional duties will be assigned by the Camp Director and by the Head Counselor. Deans and Camp Staff will not give duties to any CIT, but refer request to the Head Counselor. SPECIFIC DUTIES TRAINING TOPICS Camp Couselors Need
