I recently received a phone call from a 14-year-old boy named Raymond, from Philadelphia, whose teacher suggested it would be "good for him" to go to Victory Valley. It was clear from our conversation (although he didn't say it) that his family cannot afford to send him to camp. Over the phone, he read descriptions to me from our Victory Valley Camp brochure. The way he read it, you might have thought he was describing an exotic foreign land.
And then he paused and said, "Is it really nice there?"
Yes, Raymond, it's really nice here.
I'm personally committed to making sure that Raymond can come to Victory Valley Camp this summer. There are many other boys and girls like him. I need your help.
The satirical stories on ScrappleFace often point up what's wrong with our world, our politics, our media. But if I focused on what's wrong all the time, I would become depressed. It's frustrating to merely comment on the "bad news". The ministry of Victory Valley Camp allows me to be a partner with many other people in bringing truly good news to children and their families.
For each child who comes to camp, life is a little better...if only for a time. For each child who comes to Christ at camp, there is new life for all of time...and for eternity.

Sun rays appear to paint rainbow streaks upon the front of the pavillion at Victory Valley Camp. The pavillion is a great refuge on rainy days, and a terrific rink for street hockey. It's next to the outdoor basketball and sand volleyball courts, as well as the soccer and baseball fields. |
Dock by the pond at Victory Valley Camp, where children use rowboats, canoes, kayaks and fishing poles. |
For 40 summers at Victory Valley Camp the in-ground pool has echoed with laughter and splashing. |
Sigmund Creek meanders through the lower meadow at Victory Valley Camp. Kids love to "creekwalk" in a pair of old sneakers. |
One of the barns on the old Henninger farm serves as a rustic chapel with logs as pews. The other barn shelters Victory Valley's horses. |
The woods are so thick you can't see that there are a dozen cabins in this little grove at Victory Valley. Each is outfitted with bunkbeds. |
Victory Valley's cabins are each named after terrain features. This is Ridge. |
This idyllic scene is adjacent to the old Henninger farm house. The high-rise birdhouse (left), and the old smokehouse (right) add to the bucolic charm. |
Meadow just down the slope from the indoor sports facility we call Victory Hall. |
