Camp Sunrise

by Bruce Grodner-NYC

Camp Sunrise is quietly resting under a blanket of snow patiently awaiting for the spring thaw.

This season will mark our 8th year at the camp. Oh, how time flies. Over the years we've hosted many seminars and various programs and outings for a number of church and non-church functions. However our greatest use has come from the ever-growing 2nd. generation population.

Last year we had our biggest challenge and honor to host our 2nd. Generation's 70 Day Training program as well as having the opportunity to attend True Father and Family when they visited.

There were many challenges that presented itself to us especially from the NY State Dept. of Health. For the last seven years we've been under the heading of a family camp. However in running a children's camp there are many more rules and regulations. Eventually, with the assistance of World CARP, we were able to receive the blessing in the form of having a permit issued from the State of New York for children's camp.

I'm reminded once again how fortunate we are to have such a place just 43 miles from mid-town Manhattan and away from the many distractions of daily life. To have a place where members guests and friends can go to feel the presence of God.

Membership

Toward the end of November 1994, we were quite desperate in fear of loosing our lease due to a lack of funds. We had to pay $7500 to reopen the camp. We know how much everyone loves and appreciates the camp so we asked our church community for help.

We decided to have a membership drive and raised exactly enough to open last year.

Thank you everyone.

Many people asked if we are going to continue with the membership. We will. Hopefully with even a greater response. This years membership will have more advantages than before.
