- While this is not a youth camp, there will be youth programming each day. We're planning youth Bible studies, crafts, waterfront time, game time, sing time, etc. Much of this will be during the afternoon free time. During these times, families can stick together, or we'll have dedicated staff to supervise the children.
- Lodging and three meals per day will be included in the "suggested donation".
- We'll have two sessions between 9:45-11:45am dedicated to Bible teaching. The adults will meet inside the main lodge. Youth ages 6+ will meet meet in the activity building.
- Each afternoon (1:30-3pm) we'll have a Bible discussion lead by one of the day's speakers to dive into questions you might have.
- Dan Gross will lead the teaching to the adults, with assistance from other preachers. The full speaker lineup will be announced once we finalize it.
- My wife, Jessica, and myself will coordinate the youth programming, with assistance from a select group of staff.
- There will also be an evening message (7pm) for adults while the kids are entertained with special events.
- We will also be having informal, "picnic table" and "campfire" discussions for the adults, which will allow you to be a part of the conversation.
- Nightly campfires will also be provided where we'll enjoy fellowship and snacks.
- Kamp Kenwood has four cabins with 20 beds, and two bathrooms/showers in each cabin. At least one cabin will be specified for each gender. There is also a "staff cabin" that will mostly be reserved for staff but we may have some ability to house those with special needs. Please reach out to us to discuss.
- Of the remaining two cabins, larger families will have the option of partnering with other families to occupy an entire cabin. If that space isn't used, then we'll be able to spread those in the male/female cabins out.
- Tent camping, as well as RVs and trailers, are allowed and encouraged. Tents are allowed at no cost. RVs and trailers are charged an extra $15 per night. However, there is only so much room for trailers so sign up early if that is your plan. Also, if you plan to pull in a trailer, there is a fair chance you won't have easy access to an electrical outlet. The camp is adjacent to Wissota State Park, which also offers various camping opportunities.

First off, here’s what not to bring:
- Alcohol, firearms, and other weapons. These are specified by our insurance carrier as items that will void the policy. If you plan to smoke cigarettes or use other nicotine products, we’d ask that you do it in a manner that is not disruptive and properly dispose of any items.
- While we expect each parent to ensure that they and their children are dressed modestly, we would suggest leaving revealing clothes at home. Generally speaking, if you wouldn’t walk into a church with a portion of skin exposed, it’s best not to do so at camp. Same goes for skin-tight clothing.
- There is very limited access to Wi-Fi internet. We’ll have plenty to do to keep kids busy so there won’t be a need for laptops, tablets, smartphones, etc.
What to bring:
- King James Bible (All teaching will be done from this Bible. Extras will be available if you forget yours.)
- Flashlight
- Bug Spray and Sunscreen
- Warm Clothes
- Sleeping Bag or Other Bedding
- Pillow
- Swimwear
- Shower/Beach Sandals
- Towels and Wash Cloths
- Soap and Shampoo
- Shoes for Hiking and Athletics
- A Fan and Extension Cord

**Access to do laundry will be limited to only emergency situations.
While there is no cost to attend, we would suggest a donation of $100 per person. Of course, some can give more, some can give less. We trust families to make the decision on how much to donate based on the size of their family and the age of their kids. Donations can be made through Zelle (use "northwoodsgrace@gmail.com" as the contact or use the QR code on the donate tab). We'll also have a donation box on site. If you prefer to mail a check, contact us at the email above and we'll provide a mailing address. We've received some generous donations for start up funds to be used to help defray costs so please don't let finances be a reason you don't attend.
