Below are the details of each camp. Campers will once again get a chance to choose some individual classes of interest to them. Depending on the week, classes might include gold panning, packing and then hiking with miniature donkeys, tie dying shirts, drama, puppets, geology, painting, fishing and more. Donkey basketball will be an new activity for everyone to enjoy. And of course there will be all the usual Bible classes, water fun, games, and activities.

Depending on the camp, either the drop off or pick up has been scheduled on a weekend day to make it possible for parents to have a little time at camp to meet the volunteer staff spending the week with their children, and get a better feel for what is going on at camp. Credit at the camp store is included in the registration fee so kids only need to bring money if they would like to purchase a t-shirt, which still costs just $10.00, or the picture CD at check-out, which is $2.00. Visit the web site at www.alacca.org for more information about what to bring, the ALACCA dress code, and more.

The fee for each camp is $75.00. Registration is required. For more information, and to register, call (208) 983-1188, e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it , or go on-line at www.alacca.org. You can register on-line or print off a form and mail it in. There are full and partial scholarships available so don't let money be a reason for missing out on what God has for your kids at ALACCA this summer.

Harry Link, better known as Uncle Harry, has traveled from Colorado each summer for 28 years to teach archery and share the love of God with children at ALACCA Bible Camp. Many of you have received birthday cards from Uncle Harry over the years. He has been a faithful servant of his Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. Uncle Harry is near the end of his journey here on earth, with cancer taking its toll on his body. If you want to send a note of encouragement or to share with Uncle Harry the impact he had on your life it would be a blessing to both Uncle Harry and his wife Barbara. Please keep them in your prayers. The mailing address is:

God has provided ALACCA with an incredibly generous donation of $2,000.00 in the form of a matching challenge for purchase of the CampWise camp management software. For every dollar donated toward the purchase of CampWise, the donor will match that amount up to $2,000.00. That would provide the approximately $4,000.00 needed to purchase and implement the new system. The system will stream line the registration, check-in, payment, cabin assignment, activity scheduling, camp store, and donation processes, as well as increasing, and improving donor and camper communications. All of which frees up our time to focus more time on getting God's Word out. Please be in prayer as to what God might have you do in response to this challenge and to God be the glory!

Bad news to report - one of our convection ovens bit the dust. It will cost almost as much to repair as to purchase a brand new one, so we're on the hunt for a great deal on a new or gently used industrial convection oven. The great news is we have another matching gift challenge!! One of our supporting churches has offered to match your gifts dollar-for-dollar, up to $1625.00, to purchase the new convection oven for the camp kitchen. We need this oven before the summer camp season begins, so our time is short. Please be in prayer about how God might be leading you, and please get the word out to anyone you know who might want to be a part of meeting this need. Perhaps there is another church out there who could match all or part of the challenge?

The last event was so successful they are doing another one. So, if you missed it last time, here's another chance to bring in some money for ALACCA with no financial investment on your part. GoodSearch will donate a $1 for every tool bar that is downloaded between May 19th at 12 noon Eastern and May 21st at 12 noon Eastern up to $5,000!! Our ALACCA GoodSearch tool bar is free to download and allows you to raise money for ALACCA every time you search or shop on line! Once added to IE or Firefox, each time you shop at more than 1,300 stores (from Amazon to Zazzle!) a percentage of your purchase will automatically be donated to ALACCA - at no cost to you (and you may even save money as the tool bar provides coupons and deals as well!). The ALACCA GoodSearch tool bar also has a search box and each time you search the Internet, about a penny is donated to ALACCA.

Please hurry and do this between May 19th at 12 noon Eastern and May 21st at 12 noon Eastern so that we can earn the $1 bonus per tool bar! And, please pass this along to all of your friends. The two minutes it takes to add this tool bar to your browser can make a lifetime of difference for ALACCA! Get the tool bar NOW!

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
