These opportunity campers, brought in from all walks of life, were guests of the conference and the churches of Illinois. A regular camp program consisted of preparing for in- spection, morning devotions, flag raising, breakfast, work, camp council, swimming, crafts, recreation, dinner, work, boating, rest, swimming, crafts, supper, recreation, flag low- ering, camp fire, and bed time. These youth were so thrilled with their camp experience they didn't want to go home. Money invested in youth, whether they be from the world or from our churches, is money well spent. Camping in God's nature could be the answer to your family problems, for families that play and pray together, stay together in God's truth. E. L. ALLEN, Public Relations Secretary Illinois Conference

Their routines at camp are quite similar to those at regular youth camps and the youngsters learn to enjoy the creatures of nature which many of them never before realized existed. academies and Andrews University participating in the youth scholarship summer-camping program. Many of these young people from underprivileged homes pray for the first time at camp under the guidance of Ad- ventist youth counselors. It is heartwarming to hear these children express thankfulness and gratitude to God for the opportunity of attending a good-neighbor camp. Five such camps have already been conducted this summer —four at Scott Lake, and one for the Upper Peninsula. Besides the 58 at Clear Lake Camp, about 300 more children of all faith were selected by local churches, often in cooperation with welfare and court authorities, to enjoy the facilities of Scott Lake Camp. A few deaf and blind campers were included. The conference Lay Activities department endorses these camps wholeheartedly, for they are a vital part of our ex- panding good-neighbor program of helping and serving those in need and provide a very worthy and practical outlet for the expenditure of a portion of our conference welfare reserve fund that is built up annually through our Ingath- canoe. ering reversion plan.

Endeavoring to register their concern for the many young people running the sidewalks in our cities and town, another "big brother" program was put into operation in conjunction with our regular Wisconsin youth camps. The benefactors of this "good will" gesture were young people from homes who were underprivileged in one way or another. Without the help of "someone who cared," a week of camp would have been just another unfulfilled dream. In a plan whereby churches selected worthy young people of the community and sent them to Camp Wandoon with the churches paying a portion of the expenses and the con- ference paying the lion's share of costs, more than 20 young people registered at one of the camps to enjoy a week of swimming, hiking, making crafts, listening for the first time to stories that live, and in general having the time of Ann Steinweg, extreme right, directs the members of her class to the sight of a bird in a nearby tree for identification in their bird their lives. study class at one of the Michigan opportunity camps.
