Mountain High Scholarship Camp July 2-9, 2005 Brad and Margie Iverson Camp Directors 951-927-0997 Dear Awana Family, Summer 2005 will be quickly upon us and before you know it many of us will be gathering at Pine Summit for another week of Awana Scholarship Camp. I know it is hard to believe but it is true. Don t YOU be left OUT! Enclosed, is your camper application for 2005. Turn it in EARLY since the space is limited!! This is a week you will not want to miss!! What is Scholarship Camp all about you say? It is 7 days of intense spiritual growth, exciting fun, great food, fabulous friends, dedicated counselors, and adventures. You will be s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d in every way it is God that will be molding you into His spiritual soldier. You will be memorizing a passage in God s Word, involved in daily Bible lessons, participating in Bible Quiz, taking part in evening devotions with your cabin mates, learning how to develop a personal quiet time each day with the Lord, and competing with your team in some crazy activities! Clubbers who are entering sixth grade or higher and have earned an Excellence, Timothy, Meritorious or Citation Award or completed two years of AKX or Journey 24/7 program requirements are eligible for camp. Campers must be at least 10 years old by the first day of camp. High school age campers must be at least 13 years old by the first day of camp. Returning campers must complete one additional handbook/manual in the current handbook progression. All work must be completed before camp begins. The cost of camp this year will be $350.00 per camper. You will receive 7 full days of camp, a camp shirt, lesson books, award plaque, and a camp picture. For your application to be accepted it must be accompanied by a $150.00 non-refundable registration fee. To avoid a late fee of $20.00 your application must be post marked by March 15, 2005. After this date any open slots that are left will be opened up to campers from outside the Greater LA area so don t wait until the last minute! The balance of your camper fees ($200) must be postmarked by May 25, 2005. Not doing so will cost you another late fee of $20.00 and your spot at camp could be given to campers on the waiting list. All campers that are accepted to attend camp are expected to participate in camp for the entire week. A check from your church should be made out to Mountain High Scholarship Camp and mailed to Brad Iverson, 26205 Lisa Lane, Hemet, CA 92544. Much prayer has already gone into this week of camp and we are confident that the Lord will do great things in the lives of all who attend. Expect God to teach you, humble you, stretch you, squeeze you, challenge you, convict you, and reward you. Will you be a mound of clay in the Master s hands this year at camp?

Dear Parents of Campers: At Awana Clubs International, we care about kids! Our hope and prayer is that all children and youth throughout the world will come to know, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ. Volunteers for Awana camps are chosen carefully. They are screened by the Awana missionary and Awana Clubs International headquarters office. Our goal is that all volunteers will have a positive spiritual impact on youth attending camp. Should you have any concerns regarding anything that occurred at camp, you may contact the Awana Missionary for your area or the Awana Headquarters office and speak to anyone in the Child Protection department. The contact information is at the end of this letter. We encourage you to talk to your son or daughter and encourage them to talk to you about their camp experience. Also, let your son or daughter know they can feel free to talk with a camp counselor or the camp director should there be something he or she is not comfortable with at camp. We desire camp to be a positive experience for all youth; a time of spiritual growth and a time they look back on with fond memories. We covet your prayers as Awana works to bring spiritual enrichment to the young people that are entrusted to us at camp. Blessings to you!
