Camp is just around the corner and below you will find all that you need to know to get your student to camp and back!

Drop Off
Plan to drop your student off at Pine Valley on January 12th at 5pm SHARP. Upon arrival the student will check in at the parking lot and proceed with their luggage to Shiloh Hall. It is CRUCIAL that the student has their printed signed parent waiver with them! (Attached below)
Pick Up
Please pick up your student from Pine Valley on January 15th at 10:30am.
We highly encourage carpooling with other parents. If you’re having trouble finding a ride, please ask your student’s small group leader for assistance in organizing transportation. The highway does change from a 3 lane to a 1 lane, so plan accordingly for Friday traffic. Students are not allowed to drive themselves! If there are any late arrivals or early departures, then please let Sarah Wyatt know (sarahwyatt95@gmail.com).

Phones
Electronics are NOT PERMITTED during sessions, small groups, cabin & meal times. Students are allowed to use their phones for pictures and video during free time, but we really do not want them to have any distractions while at camp, so if you feel as a family that your student can do without their phone, we’d like to encourage you to consider having your student leave them at home. In an emergency situation you can always call their staff leader or me. As an aside, cell phone reception/internet is weak on campus.
Speaker
This year we have long time student ministry pastor from Lakeside Bible Church in Texas, Kyle Jenison coming to preach. His sermon series is titled. “The Sinfulness of Sin”. Pray that your student would learn to take sin seriously!
Band
We have Pat Levis, his brother Joe & sister Caitie leading us in praise; no stranger to FBC youth camps, this crew has been playing camps since our seniors were in diapers! We’re so thankful for the sacrifice they’re making to come serve us.
Camp Doctor
At camp your student will be under the guidance of the legendary Dr. Mark Mueller! His wisdom and experience will help keep your student safe and healthy!
Medicine
If your student has medication that they take, we trust that it will be self administered. However, in the event that it cannot be, please let their staff leader know and they will be sure to have the doctor pay them a visit as necessary.
Please email Sarah Wyatt (sarahwyatt95@gmail.com) with any questions or special requests.
Thank you for your prayers. I’m so glad your student is coming to camp! I pray the Lord will work in their heart while they are away.
In Him,
Jesse Bocanegra
