Dear Friends,
Camp Bethel needs YOUR participation! We encourage you and your congregation to participate in Camp Bethel’s 34th Annual Brethren Heritage Celebration, also known as Heritage Day. With many additions and changes to the event since 1984, Heritage Day still remains the “grandest of Camp Bethel’s days.” In 2018, your combined efforts and events raised $35000! 100% of Heritage Day revenue directly funds our ministry; thus Heritage Day is camp’s most important fund-raising event, providing 6% of camp’s total annual funding!
Please join our 2019 Heritage Day Festival! It is our hope to have EVERY Virlina District congregation participating in or attending Heritage Day. Participants and helpers may lodge or camp at Camp Bethel Friday and Saturday night, Oct 4-5 free of charge with RSVP 540-992-2940 or CampBethelOffice@gmail.com. If your church can’t participate with a booth, help in one or more other ways:
The Camp Property Committee is seeking volunteers to help with PARKING cars in 2-hour shifts 6:00am-2:00pm on October 5. Contact 540-992-2940 or CampBethelOffice@gmail.com.
Our day on October 5 opens to the public with 7:30am breakfast in the Ark and booths open throughout camp 9:00am-2:30pm. We will have food, children’s fishing, wonderful crafts and sale items, plenty of Brethren Heritage items and demonstrations, live music and blessed fellowship of faithful servants!
Please complete and return your “Exhibit Space and Registration Form” OR submit your information on line at www.CampBethelVirginia.org/heritage-day, all by September 26. Please note that our festival is EXEMPT from formerly required permitting through the Health Department.
If you have any questions about Heritage Day, lodging or helping, e-mail us at CampBethelOffice@gmail.com.
Thank you for your donations, your jars, and your help, and see you here for Heritage Day on Saturday, October 5, 2019!
Together, in Christ our hope,
Barry LeNoir, camp director
