Time to think about Summer Camp

The Scottish Episcopal Church has a great summer camping programme. I've never managed to convince any of my young people to attend. There are generally issues of other summer activities or summer jobs which get in the way but, at base, there's not a tradition in the congregation of sending our kids along so it's really just a question of inertia.

Nonetheless, there is a sufficient enough number of active life-long lay saints and even a few clergy who got their start at summer camp. I shall endeavour once again to roll this large rock to the top of the hill and we'll see what happens.

A brief explanatory note. My niece Emma was a junior counsellor last year. She's a bright and pretty little thing who looks nothing like the individual above.
