That’s a wrap on Ramp Up!!

A huge thank you to every volunteer who came out and worked through both rain and shine to help us get ready for our campers! We are so grateful for all your hard work and dedication.

Despite the hours of pouring rain, our volunteers managed to get our campsites and recreational areas ready for camper use. They cleaned, mowed, sorted, fixed, and so much more! We are so grateful for everything you helped us accomplish on Saturday.

A big round of applause for the 2026 Ramp Up Volunteers!!

THREE WEEKS AWAY!!!!

Ladies and gentlemen, summer camp 2026 is approaching fast. With camp just over a month away, there is still much to be done to get the facility ready for all the lives it will impact this summer.

Ramp Up is a yearly event where volunteers come out to Joy Of Living for a day of preparation and fellowship. Come be a part of it this year!

Camper Registration is still open! Camp is just over a month away so register now!

We are still hiring multiple positions and have a great need for a cook and male counselors especially. Other positions still hiring include
female counselors and maintenance/horse wranglers.

We can't wait to get back on the river this summer! As a camper, tubing was always one of my favorite parts of the week. Now, ten years later, as a staff member, it still is!

Hello Joy of Living friends!

Summer camp 2026 is already shaping up to be one of the best we've had! Our excitement is climbing, our team is counting down the days to summer, and more and more campers are registering every week!

We are putting the finishing touches on some amazing schedules, hiring a spectacular staff, and it's all boiling down to one last pre-summer task: the supplies.

That's where we call on you! The support we receive from our community, both in the shape of donations and volunteers, is crucial to keeping the camp going.

Whether it's a smaller activity supply or one of the larger tools we've needed for a while, every donation off our wishlist has a direct impact. There truly is no gift too small; every single supply makes a difference, whether it is a camera or a dodgeball!

If you feel called to give, we would be so grateful. Your support is what makes this ministry possible. We are so excited for the difference we get to make this summer, and couldn't be happier to see the ways the Lord is working at Joy this season!

See you at the next update!

With gratitude and joy,
The Joy of Living Team
