Fall Friends of the Camps Day

The annual Fall Friends of the Camps Day was held on Saturday, November 5, 2011 at Camp Summers & Manget in Cameron, South Carolina.  Each year the event is sponsored by the Board of Trustees of Eastern Conference Properties.  The day began with a yard sale held in the Recreation Hall.  Various donors brought in goods to be sold. Following the Yard Sale, there was a live auction held in the Tabernacle. Items ranged from vacation rentals to handmade wooden items to baked goods and a little of everything in between. Auction attendees enjoyed bidding on the various items and there was even a little friendly up-bidding.  Next, a lunch of BBQ sandwiches and the sides was served in the Dining Hall.

We would like to thank all of those who came to the Friends of the Camps Day. It was a great event and old friends had a chance to reunite.  Not only was it a chance for great fellowship but also an opportunity to raise money for the camp programs. The fundraising purpose for this year’s event was the Faith Life Center at Camp Three Forks Trail.  The Friends of the Camps Day event raised $5,125 towards the building project at our camp in the mountains of Northern Georgia. Thank you to all of those who helped to make this day a great success! Thank you to those who donated items, helped set-up or clean up, prepared the meal, and everything else that was done!

The 2012 Friends of the Camps Day will be held on Saturday, November 3.
