We need help supplying THOUSANDS of Tree Cookies for our 2026 programs. Do you have trees/branches, a chop-saw, and a drill? We use over 4,000 yearly for nametags, environmental ed programs (like KinderCritters), crafts and more. Any hard wood and any cross-cut showing tree rings works ideally for us. Cut 'em, drill 'em, deliver 'em, or call with questions (540-992-2940). THANK YOU!

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"
