PROJECT FUNDRAISING AT RETREAT: Officer Competition, Grab Bags and the officers have challenged each girl or each GMA group to decorate a watering can based on the camp theme and fill it with money! Be creative! Enlist your church to help fill it with loose change for the National Project! These items will be judged at retreat!

For the silent auction this year, we are asking GMA groups to create a “gift basket” filled with goodies. The basket can be themed such as a “movie basket” or “spa basket” and it can be big or small! Have fun with it!

PROJECT NOMINATIONS: Please pray about our 2025-2026 National GMA Project! If you have a nomination, please submit it by 1:00pm Wednesday to Mrs. Lane Flynt. Each nomination should be signed by a counselor and should include the name of the church and the cabin number.

Camp Rules & Dress Code

 

The following rules apply to all campers, including adults.

Code of Conduct

  1. The camp does not permit fireworks, firearms, water pistols, balloons, alcoholic drinks, drugs for abuse, or tobacco in any form.

  2. No one is allowed to remain in the cabins during services or class time. Anyone who is sick will be in the hospital during this time.

  3. A counselor must go with any girl who must leave the tabernacle during a service.

  4. The dress codes are important. Please insist that all abide by these codes at all times (see dress code below).

  5. Campers are required to remain in the cabins after lights out.

  6. It is mandatory that a counselor be at the pool with your girls during their swimming session!

Dress Code

  1. Clean, neat pants or knee length shorts may be worn until after supper.

  2. Appropriate shirts should be modest, no tank tops or sleeveless shirts, showing no cleavage, and no inappropriate messages.

  3. Appropriate short length is measured by the girl’s palm width above her knee. Skirt length (including slits) should be knee length. No leggings.

  4. Dresses, dress pants, dress capris, or jeans without holes are to be worn for all night services, unless otherwise announced by the Advisory Council. On Tuesday night, t-shirts and jeans or capris may be worn, but no shorts. (Wear GMA t-shirts: local, district, state, or national.)

  5. Bathing suits are to be modest, one piece suits or a two-piece covered by a non-white t-shirt. A cover-up for bathing suits is to be worn when going to and from the pool. Not just a towel (a robe or sundress or long t-shirt would be appropriate).

  6. Sundresses may be worn, but t-shirts must be worn under spaghetti strap and sleeveless dresses.
