The Pawsome Adventures of ReinDog!
An occasional wag into the charmed (& slobbery) life of Jenna's camp dog, Rein. 
(Shameless click-bait to promote something happening at Camp!)

​Episode #3: The Tell TAIL Heart
Squirrels are in the air...    or is it LOVE in the air?
Valentine's Day is next week... a ruff day for a lonely dog...
But LOVE isn't the only thing on ReinDog's mind. On cold winter days ReinDog doggie-dreams of her true love... squirrels.
Oh! To finally getting to go on a long walk in the woods with a squirrel, (so lovely, so fetching...),  to talk to squirrels perched on braches, "Be my bow-wow-entine!" (oh dear... barking up the wrong tree), to laugh and chatter with squirrels... Maybe even paw-pose marriage...  Oh!  Squirrel love is truly in the air!

BUT even more important to ReinDog than Valentines Day...  Even MORE important to ReinDog than squirrels...  ReinDog LOVES summer campers, and she knows that summer camp begins with YOU attending the February 17 Camp Supporter Luncheon.

Don’t break ReinDog's heart! It's the LEASHED you can do! Come to the Camp Supporter’s Luncheon and gather all the tools and information needed to  communicate Camp Bethel to your community. CAMP LOVE is in the air! 

And if you don't attend on February 17, howl we ever get our camp info to your church?

​Episode #2: A Christmas Wish...
ReinDog sits calmly by her Christmas Tree listening to her favorite Christmas Carols; Bark the Herald Angels Sing, We Woof You a Furry Christmas, etc.
She PAWSES to think about her Christmas Wish list:
  5... Yummy Bones!
  4... More Christmas Sweaters!
  3... NOT to throw up in Barry's office!
  2... Peace on Earth...

And her #1 Christmas wish is...
  to see YOU at Winter Camp Youth and Kids’ Retreat!

Really, really...
ReinDog is SO excited for Winter Camp! She wants to go DACHSHUND through the snow in a one horse open sleigh (she prefers REINdeer). Oh how she longs (and pants) for the fun to come!
Join ReinDog at Winter Camp Youth and Kids’ Retreat. Register HERE!

Episode #1: The Masked Mongrel!
Ever alert and vigilant to sniffing-out the shenanigans of squirrels outside the camp office, ReinDog spots a masked bandit trying to steal Beth's handbag! Not to worry, readers; ReinDog will RETREIVER purse.
Using her super-speed (and only stopping to pee three times), ReinDog zoomed outside to fetch the would-be burglar!
Always humble, ReinDog declined the reward for her feats... er, paws.  Rein's only request is fur grateful readers to join in her epic pursuit for the good of Camp Bethel by VOLUNTEERING for November 4 Fall Workday!  RSVP your FREE meals ASAP.  (No dog dish required.)
Howl
 she ever top this first adventure? Tune in to our next eNews! (Writing this was a ruff assignment...  If I kept going, it mutt have been worse...)

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING:
"Our son and daughter have been coming to Camp Bethel since they were 5 years old--they are now 13 and 14 years old. We have found that your camp is one of the few that our kids continue to enjoy even as they are older. Other camps (sometimes a lot more expensive) are nice but for some reason the magic of Camp Bethel remains. We also really respect the way that your camp incorporates God and Bible study but in such a way that it is still cool--a rarity these days to find a place where kids can be kids and learn to love God and care for one another in God's creation. Thanks so much for the awesome experience for our kids and the ongoing magic that is Camp Bethel. Thanks, Gina and Chris Engel"
