All summer we have been working on a DVD that will capture the essence of being a camper at Ironwood. It's harder than I thought! How do you record relationships being built, God working in hearts, and the enjoyment of good food, fun games, and a safe environment? The DVD, called the Nickel Tour, is designed to share some of the different types of programs, the reasons behind why we do what we do, and answer questions about what is offered and what camp looks like. In the next few weeks, we will add these to our video tours.

This project has given me the opportunity to reflect on what camp is all about. Today our goal was to take a few pictures of our staff with campers. It was easy. Everywhere we looked counselors were talking and playing with campers. We walked into the Cattleman’s Lodge, and once again saw campers and counselors. We went to the store and the Meetin’ Hall and again, campers and counselors. Of course, the video has plenty of pictures of facility; but if you get a chance to see the Nickel Tour of Ironwood, I hope you see that Ironwood is made up of a bunch of people working with God to build people.
