Dear Friends,
 
Thank you for visiting our Higher Ground web site! At Higher Ground Summer Camp we do all that we can to share the love of Jesus with everyone who comes through our doors. I think you will find our summer camp to be very affordable and of very high quality as all of our staff volunteer their time and are carefully screened and selected. Our prayer is that every camper we serve will come to more fully understand who they are in Jesus Christ. May God bless you and we hope to see your child at Higher Ground in 2012!
 
In His Grace,
Paul David Kurts
