A typical day at a classic work camp has persons departing after breakfast for a work project destination. Work projects in 2010 included painting a house, working at a thrift store, doing trail maintenance at a state park, performing river clean-up, and helping at a food pantry. On four days campers work. A fifth day is set aside for relaxation and fun at a local water fall. Evenings after supper at the camp allowed time for recreation, processing of the days activities, and vespers/worship. |

JRVC uses a curriculum edited under the title New Earth, Christian Resources for the outdoors. In 2011, with the theme Got Spirit, campers and staff will be invited to find God in the everyday experiences of camp and to learn practices for drawing close to God when returning home, Discovery experiences will include Wonder (Psalm 8, Gratitude (Luke 17:11-19), Hospitality (Luke 24:13-35), Generosity (I Corinthians 12:1-26), Worship (Psalm 96), and Living in Christ's Love (John 15:1-17). The publisher offers a pdf sample of this material. |
