It's a dead heat!!



Old Manatawny Green with white letters is in the lead with tye-dye being right behind it. Scroll down and vote if you haven't already done so!


Everyone really misses camp and guess what?! Camp misses you too!! I love camp. The sights, sounds and smells. It is the safest place I know of.


It looks like we are going to have a new pool this year and no more diving board since Junior High 2 has broken it the past two years. It is my understanding we will have some type of diving platform. I don't think we will have one like this picture but wouldn't that be nice??? Teaching a 6 or 7 year old to go off a tall diving board would be awesome....it would certainly build character. Bottom line...I just pray the new pool will be done. Pool time @ camp for the boys is some serious crazy fun!!

Low Ropes 2006

Hey is this a dancing course or low ropes course?


Smile!!!



Fun??? Sure is!!!


CMAA and You have completed the Low Ropes course for camp's 2006 season!

Thank you all!!

All of the money collected has completed a course that is in keeping with Camp Manatawny's overall mission;
serving people by providing programs and resources that encourage spiritual growth and renewal

The course has been tested and it does grow your spirit

Check out the course on your next visit and if you plan to "test" any of the course be sure to have a qualified instructor with you.

CMAA has a lot going on and you will certainly see some of the improvements on your next visit to camp.
Be sure to stay tuned for the next "big thing" that we plan to complete for camp.
and remember...God loves you!

Church Retreat

We (our church) are headed to our annual Man's Retreat @ Camp this weekend. We have about 30 of us from Collingswood CoC going. It s/b a blast.
I am disappointed that there will not be any snow on the ground and it is supposed to be about 50 degrees, but I will take what God has planned everytime!

Enjoy the weekend fellow campers and say a prayer for us!

Mail Call !



I am thinking of camp these past few cold/wintry snowy days...not really thinking of camp so much as the people. The people who go to camp....I guess it started w/Manatawny Trails coming to my mailbox a few days ago and I sent some emails to some folks and the next thing you know I am talking to some campers I know on the phone.

When I spoke with her today,
I remember telling her that there is no place on earth like Camp,
she said..."I know"
I knew, she knew
and it isn't the cabins or the pool or the dining hall that makes Camp unique,
it is you, the people.
People coming together not to just share that common bond of Jesus
but to grow Him, find Him and make Him a bigger reality.
I am thinking of you all.

i wonder

i wonder
what camp looks like now
the paths are silent
yet alive
this road is narrow
never wide

Stand Your Ground

This weekend Manatawny featured the ever popular SYG Rally....what a great speaker and how about those videos from Rob Bell http://www.nooma.com/ ??
Great job by Youth Advance for preparing a faith building day. I got to see a lot of new friends, old friends and make some brand new friends. It was a great time....as always the singing was smashing. Camp is great and I love pulling up onto the property and feeling "safe". It's a feeling I can't describe.
Youth Advance has a link on the side of the blog somewhere....check them out!
One of the highlights for me was knowing that Flatlands Church of Christ from Brooklyn New York somehow got a flyer and treked down to Manatawny...it was great to have them....I got a chance to meet some of them and they were awesome. Camp continues to grow!!
I know we had people from Delaware, New Jersey, New York and of course Pennsylvania not sure if anyone from Maryland made the trip.
