Welcome to the new HFCC blog! We hope this can be a place where the friends and family of HFCC can come and stay connected to camp! Our goal is to give parents, campers, and anyone else interested up-to-date information, events, activities of camp, as well as a weekly devotional! Also, we hope to be able to upload current camp photos from our programs throughout the year!

This past weekend we traveled up to camp, after what seemed to be a long yet very short winter! The winter season left us with a few downed trees, one that fell on our new cabin, Zuni, and another that fell on the slide in the Rec field. We're planning repairs already, and are grateful that there was only minimal damage while we were gone!


A group of men came up to lay the footer and pour our cement slab where in a few short weeks our new fridge/freezer unit will lay! Despite some (or lots) of rain and a few equipment issues, they were able to get the job done and were even able to tear out the old unit that was over 35 years old!

One of the other highlights of the weekend was being able to participate in the 10th Annual Oscoda Family Fun Fair put on by the Iosco County Family Coalition. It was our first time being a part of it, and we had a blast! Thanks to Ptarmi's parents, we had a new corn toss game for the kids to play...and they loved it! It was great to get connected to the community around camp, and we are praying that we can have a positive impact in that area.

We look forward to returning to camp in a few weeks for the May 15th-17th work weekend. Continue to pray for the completion of our new fridge/freezer unit and the safety of our site. We'll upload some pictures in the next few days but we wanted to get this blog up and running! Thanks for stopping by!
