Youth Camp Theme Night

 

The theme night for each youth camp will be the "60's".  Theme night takes place one night during supper and campers are encouraged to dress in their favorite 60's outfit.  This will be an opportunity for campers to flashback to a time of Beads, Flower Power, and Tie Dyed shirts.

Alot of great musical talent came out of the 60's so if you want to showcase your talent, serious or fun, come prepared!  Peace, man!!!
