YOU CAN HELP FORT HILL CHRISTIAN YOUTH CAMP!  
INVESTING IN OUR YOUTH
Did you know that a major study by one of the brotherhood colleges showed that christian camping was the second most effective tool in helping youth remain faithful to the Lord? Only parents surpassed christian camping in helping youth remain faithful. The recent economic downturn has strained many parents' ability to send their children to camp. Here at Summit we want to make sure ALL of our youth have the opportunity to attend camp. Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp will accept any child that cannot pay for tuition as long as scholarship money is available. The camp's Board of Trustees depend on generous individuals to sponsor a camper or part of the camper fee. If you are interested in helping Summit's youth go to camp in 2010, please see one of the elders or give your funds with a designation of "Fort Hill Scholarship". You can also send scholarship funds to Fort Hill's treasurer: Brett Triplett, 2725 Bridlewood Street Circleville, OH 43113.

VOLUNTEER FOR A WEEK OF CAMP
Counselors, Bible class teachers, cooks and kitchen staff, nurses, maintenance, night-watch security, and others are always needed to help during a week of camp. What better way to impact youth than to volunteer to help them in a spiritual environment like Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp! If interested in volunteering, please see Bruce or call any of the camp managers who are scheduled to lead a week of camp.

FORT HILL ENDOWMENT FUND
The Camp Trustees established an endowment a few years ago to help guarantee the stability and continuity of the camp. If you are interested in making a gift please see Bruce or contact William Phillis, Board President. Gifts are tax deductible and are a great way to help Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp. Many brothers and sisters in Christ include Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp in their wills and estate planning.

KROGER & MEIJER CARDS
One way to help Fort Hill is to use Kroger and Meijer gift cards. Once you obtain a gift card for Kroger or Meijer, deposit funds onto it and use it like a debit card. Kroger and Meijer will then donate a small percentage of your purchase to Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp. Make it a habit to put funds on the card when you enter the store and then use it for purchases to help the Camp. It's just that easy! For a gift card please contact Brett Triplett at 740.477.7263 or at triplett10@msn.com.

FORT HILL MEMORIAL BRICKS
A great way to memorialize a loved one is to buy a personalized Fort Hill memorial brick with a name or message. For only $100 you can add the names of loved ones to the Fort Hill memorial paths that are being developed. Many people have already purchased bricks to honor loved ones and have helped contribute to Fort Hill Christian Youth Camp. Please see the back of a recent newsletter or see Bruce for more details.

Most of all, the board of trustees covets the prayers of the saints in helping us reach youth with the Word of God and encouraging them to attend camp.
