Stone Soup Camps Out at Orchard Lake!

Summer Fun-- School's Out -- Orchard Lake Camping
Thursday June 11 and Friday June 12 (extended stay through Sat night 13th)
Pay Orchard Lake Fees on your own
Here is the info from Beth on the logistics:

Due to most attending graduation and celebrations on Wednesday, we will delay the start of the Camp Out to Thursday.

Plan to set up tents any time after 11AM on Thursday June 11^th.

Stone Soup will be held Thursday eve along with a Mexican Fiesta dinner, volleyball and wiffleball games.

Bring something Mexican to share for dinner.  Mexican Pot Luck!

Friday AM – we are invited to Edna’s for breakfast at 9:30AM. Her house is walking distance from the campground.

She provides all  the food – we just need to help serve and clean-up.

Friday eve – we’ll do American Fare – bring hot dogs, burgers, something to share.  More games and smores.

On Saturday – some will head to the BBQ fest, some will stay at the campground, some will need to pack up.

We can plan the day as we go.

The Harris family will bring wood for the fire pit and a couple of grates for cooking hot dogs, etc.

We have a small camp stove, but please bring one too -  if you have one.

I will bring a coffee pot,  and power strip. There is only one electrical outlet at the campsite – with two plugs.

Please bring your own drinks, lunches and snacks for your family/party.

There is a water faucet at the site for washing dishes or drinking, but we usually prefer bottled or a jug of water. 

Remember a tarp or two… lantern, bug spray.

If we get heavy rain, and especially thunderstorms, it is best to either get in your car and go to the covered pavilion.

The pavilion area also has a game room with couches, bathroom, should we need to seek refuge.

Please chime in with any other questions you might have.

Thanks,

Beth

Thursday night at 8:30 p.m we'll have Stone Soup worship time.
Our theme will be "Who or What Do You Serve?"
Bob Dylan wrote:

You may be an ambassador to England or France

You may like to gamble, you might like to dance

You may be the heavyweight champion of the world

You may be a socialite with a long string of pearls.

But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed

You're gonna have to serve somebody,

It may be the devil or it may be the Lord

But you're gonna have to serve somebody.

Might be a rock'n' roll adict prancing on the stage

Might have money and drugs at your commands, women in a cage

You may be a business man or some high degree thief

They may call you Doctor or they may call you Chief.

But you're gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed

You're gonna have to serve somebody,

Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord

But you're gonna have to serve somebody.

Paul writes in Galatians:

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Can't wait to see you there!

(there will be no Stone Soup on Sunday 6/14 since we're meeting on Thursday eve)
