Our activities include music, games, crafts, Bible stories, and much more! Experience the fine hospitality of the Lake Huron staff. (Caregivers are responsible for the care of their camper during this event, including dispensing all necessary medications. There will be a nurse on site the entire weekend in case of any medical emergencies.)

Bring a friend or two, your favorite craft projects and have an uninterrupted weekend to play, craft and relax. Leave the cooking and cleaning to us! One 6′ table assigned to each person (electricity available) in Littleton Lodge – guest rooms and crafting space in one building. Meals served in Kresge Dining Hall. Start each with breakfast time devotions or wake up early and catch one of our amazing sunrises over Lake Huron.
