 I was at a stewardship training program where the
instructor said, "The bottom line is...people give to what they believe
in." We all nodded our heads. That makes sense.
If I pull out my checkbook or flip through my calendar, I can see that most of my time
and resources go to the things that I believe in: Chestnut Ridge,
education, the work of my local church, exercise, and music. Then, a
fair bit goes to things that I'm less passionate about - cleaning the
house, the unavoidable trip to the store, hauling the trash around -
but even those tasks are necessary, even though they are not necessarily
what gets be out of bed in the morning. |

 Thanks to the wonderful folks who attended our Creation Care Retreats and a lot of very helpful campers throughout the summer, the Community Farm is ready for action! We have a productive garden, which is ready to expand with some cool weather crops, two Tamworth hogs, and two Alpine diary goats. Chickens, for both eggs and meat, will be coming soon!

 Chestnut Ridge offers quality day camp and residential camp experiences for campers across the state of North Carolina and beyond. Our campers who come from the mountains or the coast have little choice but to come to residential camp. But many campers from our local community also choose to come to residential camp because they understand the value of the overnight experience. We regularly help parents understand - "Why is Residential Camp Special?"
