“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer.” Psalm 18:2

Thank you Lord Jesus for another season of camp with these precious children. We finished the last winter camp of 2026! What an incredible season of getting to reunite back with our campers, learn about what the Body of Christ is, and create new memories up in the mountains. Thank you again for every person involved who helps make camp happen.
Our next camp event is our ladies brunch coming up in 1 month, and then on to summer camps! Can’t wait to see you there. ☀️

Middle School Winter Camp! ❄️

We were thankful to find patches of snow to play in! When snow does show up, it’s often the campers’ first time experiencing it. Grateful for time spent playing games, reading The Bible, phone-free days, learning more about God + enjoying His creation together. What a gift!

This special brunch helps raise funds for camper sponsorships, allowing Camp Alandale to remain a place where foster youth can attend summer and winter camp year after year at no cost to them.

If you or your business would like to donate a basket, we would love to partner with you. There’s also a sign-up link available on our website.

We can’t wait to see you there! Invite your friends and come enjoy a beautiful morning together! ☀️

We are thrilled to announce the newest addition to Camp Alandale full-time staff 🎉
Bailee and Weston Votaw will be filling the role of Program Directors for the ministry, managing off-season tasks, and directing camps alongside Tyler and Irene Bernheisel, Executive Directors. 

Their addition comes at the perfect time as we move foward with the new property and look toward future expansion. This ministry was always designed to run with two director couples at the helm. This allows us to effectively double the amount of summer and winter camps, and reach significantly more campers with the gospel. Moving into 2026, the Votaws will alternate directing weeks with the Bernheisels, and work on program management in the off-season.

We are incredibly grateful for their passion to serve, and the Lord’s guidance and provision. Join us in welcoming them to the Camp Alandale family! 💛
