KING CORN



We sold out all the corn this year at the country fair. The ears were big and sweet. The 2007 Country Fair was great. Hope you all can make it next year.




Civil War Reinactment




The Civil War comes to life each year as part of the country fair. These photo's were taken at the 2006 Fair. The campgrounds date back to post civil war times.


Winding Roads

The Campgrounds are filled with many such roads .Great on a bicycle or on foot.

WESLEY TABERNACLE

This is the Wesley Tabernacle. We hold our Sunday services here at 11 a.m. Come join us.

Picnic Time is Family Time

We have several picnic groves to enjoy a summer family gathering. The Groves are available for rent.

A Place to pray and reflect

One of many little spots were one can come and be with nature. You can come to the garden to pray.

OLD ABE COMES TO CAMP

Every year Mr.Lincoln drops into our country fair this was a visit he made in 06. When he walks the grounds he brings back the era when our camp was first started.

WALDORF TABERNACLE

This is the most grand building on the grounds. Built in 1903 this is a steel truss building that creates a 110 foot round unobstructed view tabernacle. Many services have been held here and Music has allways been a special. I wish I could have been here the nite Mahalia Jackson sang for the campers. What a blessing that must have been.

Fall colors abound

Nothing better then a walk on a cool fall day

Cottage filled walks


The cottages are side by side and the friendships at the camp are just as close. If You know what lane this is please post it in comments and I'll post it BOB B
