Dear Campers,
Proverbs 16:9 says, "The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps."
The Midsouth Camp Board has planned for this year's Youth Camp but it appears the Lord is directing our steps elsewhere. I'm writing to inform you that the Midsouth Camp Board has made the difficult decision to cancel Midsouth Camp 2020. Out of an abundance of caution due to the continued spread of COVID-19 in major metropolitan areas of the Midsouth Conference, we thought it a wise action to take. It has also become increasingly difficult to find counselors as some who had committed to serve have since tested positive for COVID-19.
Going forward, the Midsouth Camp Board has already contacted Frontier Camp with this decision and we have made plans for the next several years to return to Frontier Camp and hold our Midsouth camps in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
In terms of refunds of camps fees, there are several options. Option 1 is a full refund of your camp fees. Option 2 is to donate your camp fees to the Midsouth for the support of Midsouth camping and Option 3 is to roll your 2020 camping fees over to apply to your 2021 camp fees. Please contact the Midsouth offices by phone or email to express your preference for what to do with your camp fees.
If you have any questions, please contact the Midsouth Conference offices.
