Upcoming Events

Volunteer Training Weekend: April 19-20
The Volunteer Training will be held at the Powderfork Campgrounds in Bald Knob, AR.  Please mark these dates on your calendar now as well! The training will start at 9:00 Saturday morning and will end no later than 11:00 am on Sunday morning.  This training is mandatory for anyone who is to be staying at camp.  The training program will inform you of medical, social, and psychological needs of our campers, our program, and Camp Quality itself.  You will learn about what it means to be a companion and what staff positions are available.  Your attendance at the workshop will also give you an opportunity to meet the rest of the companions and staff that will be new to us this year.

Summer Camp 2008: June 8-14 (Volunteers arrive June 7th)
This year a circus will be at camp to teach our campers to perform circus acts.  Because of this, we will be ending camp on Saturday, June 14th instead of Friday.  On Saturday, the kids will be performing a circus of their own for the volunteers and parents.  Please make plans to stay and watch.  This may take place right after lunch.  Also, get ready for lots of exotic animals, some great out side games, and a whole lot of swimming, crafts and more.

Leadership Weekend: November 21-23
The focus of this weekend is to build confidence, self-esteem, & other leadership traits for our campers (and siblings) ages 13-18.  The exceptional component of the weekend will be Saturday afternoon when everyone participates in a high ropes course, climbing wall, giant’s ladder, etc...  It is an extremely safe system.  Approximately 50,000 people have participated in the course with the worst type of injury being a rope burn caused by not following directions.  NO INDIVIDUAL WILL BE FORCED TO DO ANYTHING THAT THEY DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING.
