As you already know, at MK Summer Camp the Campers (aged 12-15) sleep in very traditional canvas tents. In the past Staff have tended to have big, heavy, box-like frame tents (more recently moving to dome tents), but a few years ago a group of female Assistant Staff broke the mould and brought along beautifully flower-patterned Cath Kidston mini dome tents. They added an element of colour and pizazz to the Camp site.
But I’m going to be brave and suggest that they’ve had their day, and that they’re now a little bit last decade. So what has come along to replace them? Well, how about these delightful possibilities:
Cath Kidston now offers a slightly girly, but very cool Cowboy Tepee for just £75.
But our favourite is definitely this amazing full-size replica of the iconic 1965 VW Camper Van, available in four colours, for £299. It is such a great replica that the product information clearly states: please note, this is not an actual Camper Van.
There will be a prize for the person who brings one of these to Camp this year – fact!!
We are really pleased that we have a lot of first timers joining us at Camp again this year.
As Camp approaches at great speed, it’s time for me to organise the books we want to take for the Chaplaincy Tent. Unfortunately there are still a number out on loan. If you borrowed books from the Chaplaincy Tent last year, or from the Chaplaincy Team during the year, can you please:
Please remember to pray for Camp before, during and after the event. To assist you in praying for us here is a short list of topics/areas you might like to include – please pass this around your churches too:
