I just stumbled across this video tonight posted back in September by Kelly Goddard, who taught a class at Teen camp last summer called Becoming Fully Alive.

Spend the weekend at camp serving God and growing in your faith at the Service Retreat March 23-25 (7 p.m. Friday to 3:45 p.m. Sunday). The cost is $40 per person due March 16 to 191 Powell Place Road, Tabernacle NJ 08088 with registration and health form. You can download the forms HERE. The late fee is $30.

Pack for work and pack for fun. Youth groups are welcomed and encouraged. The retreat is open to middle and high school students and their youth leaders. One youth leader will come free for every six kids who register.

Email rich.dugan@delanco.org if you have any questions.

1. Besides wanting Rich Dugan to be happy or wanting him to be sad, who are you rooting for to win the Big Game coming up on Feb. 5 and why?

2. Who do you think will win?

3. If Delanco Camp were to have a commercial during the Super Bowl, what would it have to include?

Are you a college student studying journalism, public relations, video production or some related field looking for an internship this summer?

Consider applying for the summer communications intern position opening at Delanco Camp.

Spend five weeks documenting the summer camp experience, updating our blog daily, sharing tidbits on social media, taking photographs and capturing video.

Like Kevin Wolf in 2010 and Jade Hunsberger in 2011, you could be spending part of your summer at camp serving God and doing what you love to do while honing your job skills.

The details are below:

Summer Communications Intern

Delanco Camp, an inter-denominational Christian summer camp and retreat center in southern New Jersey, is seeking a summer intern to assist with documenting the summer camp experience at our five week-long youth camps.

Responsibilities will include updating the camp’s blog daily with writing and photos, the camp’s Facebook and Twitter feeds and capturing video for use on the blog at the completion of each week of camp and for future use. The intern will also be asked to develop ways to engage parents through web communication and campers when they’ve returned home.

The ideal candidate will be a self-starter with skills and experience in journalism, photography, video and social media and a commitment to the Christian faith. Problem solving, hard work and determination are also required.

The intern will be working with a supervisor and editor off-site, but will be under the direction of the summer staff supervisor. The internship will be full-time for five weeks from July 8-14 and July 22-August 18 and will include a training weekend April 20-22. A stipend of $500 will be provided as well as housing and food.

Interested candidates should send a resume and any samples of writing, blogging, photography and video to matt.ralph@delanco.org.

This commercial produced by Focus on the Family aired during the Saturday (Jan. 14) NFL playoff game between the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots.

Focus on the Family has a free resource associated with the commercial available for download HERE.

Pretty cool, huh?

Camp regular Sarah Herman covers He Is We’s song “Happily Ever After” in this video she posted to YouTube today. The original is HERE. We’re of course partial to Sarah’s version.

We were nominated in three categories of the South Jersey Christian Events 2011 Reader Favorites poll this year, including favorite blog, favorite camp and conference center and favorite 2011 concert (Tenth Avenue North).

You can vote once in every category every 24 hours through Jan. 22. Obviously, we’d like you to vote for the three categories we were nominated in but really it’s up to you to decide. We are privileged to be included with so many wonderful ministries from South Jersey who are working to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and build His kingdom here in the lower half of the state.

To vote, you need to first register and use the username and password to log in so that your vote can be recorded. One lucky voter is going to win a drawing for a prize pack so every vote gets you another entry for that as well.

Go to www.sjchristianevents.com/2011-voting for all the info.

Take a dip in the cool waters of Lake Agape on Saturday, Feb. 4, at 2 p.m. and you’ll officially become a member of the Delanco Camp Polar Bear Club. Don’t want to take the plunge? Come and cheer on the ones who are.

Prizes – including free admission to the Spring Retreat (April 20-22) – will be awarded to the top fundraisers for the event and for the best costume. Don’t miss this chance to experience Lake Agape history.

The registration fee is $20, but we encourage all participants to get sponsors so we can raise money for camp. You must be 12 years of age or older to participate. The first 20 to register will get a free T-shirt.
