BSC FAMILY CAMP
JULY 24-30, 2021
Welcome To Family Camp!
Greetings from the Root Family!
We are so excited to serve you this year as Family Camp Deans. Bay Shore, and Family Camp specifically, has been an integral part of our lives for many years. Jennifer first came to Bay Shore in 1987, and has fond memories of Family Camp, various youth camps, and counseling over the years. Kendall married into the Bay Shore family and began attending Family Camp with Jennifer in 2001. Our kids, Aubrey (19) and Jeffrey (16) have grown up at Family Camp, and we have hailed our week at camp as the highlight of our year. Bay Shore has blessed us with countless fun memories, life-long friends, and rich spiritual heritage. Both Aubrey & Jeffrey committed their lives to Jesus while part of the God Squad program, and we have all been challenged and strengthened in our faith journey while on the grounds of Bay Shore.
We celebrate with you the traditions of Family Camp and anticipate a great week filled with all your favorite Bay Shore activities. Yet we also look forward to a fresh encounter with God as only He could design. Please join us in prayer as we commit this week to Him. We ask that He would work in each person’s heart, that by building on a solid foundation – including an awesome week at Family Camp!
