THE SALVATION ARMY’S CAMP HIDDEN LAKE WELCOMES 900 KIDS THIS SUMMER
To disadvantaged boys and girls, summer camp is so much more than a
vacation. It’s an opportunity to learn new things, and participate in
activities they might not otherwise have the chance to experience.
It’s a positive experience that keeps kids safe, happy, growing and
learning.
It costs $175.00 to send one boy or girl to camp for a week. That
includes food, transportation, counseling and much more. To make a
difference in a youngster’s life today — and in the world tomorrow —
please call (334) 265-0281.
