2011 Family Camp PDF Print E-mail
Join us at the Mt. Chestnut Nazarene Retreat and Conference Center for the 2011 Family Camp on July 24-July 31. The Center is located at 177 North Road, Butler, PA (Mt. Chestnut Village, US 422, near Morraine State Park and Lake Arthur).

Family Camp is a week-long event with guest preachers, special music, and age-appropriate services and activities for teens and children each morning and evening. In the afternoons, spend time with your family by relaxing in the Grove, playing basketball in the gym, taking on some friends at the paintball field (fee charged), swimming in the pool, and playing on the playground. In addition, there are many area attractions such as golf, Lake Arthur, Morraine State Park, and Living Treasures Zoo. 

Come for a day or come for the entire time. A variety of lodging is available, including motel-like dorm rooms to RV lots. Reservations are usually taken after January 1, but please call the Pittsburgh District Office (724-287-5867) for details. FOOD....Food is important! And you can eat to your heart's content at the Dining Hall Buffet (all meals).

For 2011, our guest preachers are Dan Bohi (Sunday through Wednesday) and Rev. Jeremiah Bolich (Thursday through Sunday). Our special music will be by Marcus Whitworth. Our Bible Teacher will be Prof. Mary Lou Shea, religion professor at Eastern Nazarene College.
