Do you enjoy exploring caves? Is spending time out under the Kentucky stars something you have dreamed of? Well this father/son camp may be just the ticket for you.

This ALERT Cadet Southeastern & Central Regional Father/Son Camp will focus on responding to the needs of Mammoth Cave National Park in the recovery of campsites, trails and walkways from the recent devastating ice and wind storms. There will also be time set aside for fathers and sons to spend time one-on-one with each other.

There is a planned hike through some of the most beautiful woods of Central Kentucky including a visit to the vast and beautiful Mammoth Cave.

We have scheduled a River Crossing event as well as a few sports activity times.

In the morning we will have dynamic wisdom searches focusing on “The Production of Fruit” and speakers in the evening sharing life lessons on “Preservation of Fruit”.

We will be staying in tents at the beautiful Mammoth Cave national Park located in the Central Kentucky hills.

The cost for the camp will be $155 per father and first son and only $50 per additional son.

Hope to see you ALL there.

ALERT Cadet regional and international camps assist ALERT Cadet fathers in three ways, as camps:

1. Serve as tools to motivate their sons and encourage them to love and good deeds.

2. Provide opportunities to receive training in specialized areas that might not be available for every family.

3. Allow travel to different places, create life-long memories, and provide time spent in God’s out-of-doors learning environment.

Our 2009 camp theme is “Producing Fruit for the Kingdom,” taken from II Timothy 2:2, where the Apostle Paul writes, “And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” Within this verse, we will be exploring the planting of the seed, the pruning of the vine, the tending of the vine, and the harvesting of the fruit.

We offer three different types of camps, each serving a unique purpose.

Father/Son Camps

Father/Son camps combine outdoor activities, practical skills instruction, service projects, and Bible teaching to aid fathers in winning the hearts of their sons. These camps often include a service project, structured skill and Bible teaching, and ample free time for father and son interaction. The winter camp will require extra gear, while the service camps will have reduced fees in exchange for significant service at the camp facilities.

Father/Son High Adventure Camps

These camps will be physically demanding for both fathers and sons, but they will afford opportunities to see venues and do activities not otherwise available in a normal camping environment. The administrative costs are minimal, but each family will be responsible for providing their food and procuring the necessary gear to have a safe and memorable experience. Each participant will be responsible for transporting his own gear. Campers will sleep outdoors, prepare their own meals, and be expected to care for themselves in weather conditions that can be extreme.

Leadership Training Corps (LTC) Camps

LTC camps equip ALERT Cadets aged 13 and older with leadership training and specialized skills. Our desire is that these trained young men assume greater leadership responsibility in their ALERT Cadet units and teach the skills they have learned. Fathers are welcome, but not required, to participate with their sons.
