Bethany Birches Turns 50! Join the Fun Sat. Sept. 26

It’s true. BBC is 50 years old!  The first summer of camping was 1965.  Wasn’t long after that and winter camp was added to the mix.  Then facility rentals for weddings and other program groups and activities. We haven’t looked back since.  We’re celebrating and honoring the past on the weekend of September 25-27.  The full schedule is here.  Won’t you come and join the fun?

Speaking of fun, the big day is Saturday September 26.  The day kicks off with a pancake breakfast.  The breakfast is for those staying on site.  You can rent your camping shelter here.  The shelter is $50 for the weekend and meals are covered on Saturday.

After the breakfast is the Annual Benefit Auction.  And then an afternoon of fun!  Here’s the schedule:
