Father & Son Retreat in Review
On September 11-13, Camp Willow Springs hosted its inaugural Father & Son Retreat. The weekend was filled with games and recreation, great food, quality time together as a family, and times of worship and Bible study. Jonathan Spangler, of Vision Trust, encouraged the dads and sons in their relationship with Christ and each other. Some of the retreat highlights included: glow in the dark capture the flag, riding the red shark, building birdhouses, the jumping pillow, the father/son olympics, and lots of octoball! We are excited for this to become an annual event, so make plans to join us in September 2016!
