Family Camp will be held at Camp McCormick in McCormick's Creek State Park on Friday, June 24th beginning at 3pm through Sunday, June 26th at 12noon. Please plan to attend for any or all of camp this year! Please let Angela Sturdevant know that you will be attending so there will be enough food for all.
