Welcome to Camp!


The 2011 season of Grace Point Camps has begun!

We kicked off the summer on June 2 with Family Camp, a session for rising 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade children with their parents. It was a beautiful weekend, and an experience full of first-time campers here at Grace Point!

Our theme this year is "Where His Feet Pass," and is interpreted by a different Spiritual Director each week. For Family Camp, the Spiritual Director was the Rev. Rob Travis, Church of the Ascension, Knoxville.

Thanks to all who attended, and to all who helped make Family Camp an exciting start to the new camp year!
