Teams will battle in an epic night of hide-and-seek extreme, where the seekers might not be who you think they are. Some get lost. Some have never been found. The woods taunt you. Your sense lie to you. And every sound could be the last you hear before you are caught...

RON DEGARDE - Charlotte, NC

We live in a desperate day with desperate needs. There are more challenges and pitfalls facing you today than ever. Satan is using his fiery darts with a great degree of accuracy and effectiveness. How can you live for God in such a wicked day? The Bible's admonition for you to remember the Creator in the days of you youth is needed more than ever (Ecc. 12:1)! Young people can live for God! God has not left us to our own wisdom and strength to navigate through life's journey but has thoroughly equipped us for every good work. God's Word has every answer for all of our decisions and problems. Only the light of God's Word can guide, convict and quicken us on our way to victory. "Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies" (Ps. 60:12).

Friday night, eat before you come and hop on the vans...we're headed to the farm! For just $15 you get a whole trip full of fun. Breakfast, a day of crazy games, activities, and a delicious meal served up at lunch. Bring money for a fast-food meal on the way home.

Human Foosball
Grab your friends and enter "the cage." You'll have a chance to compete with other groups in a friendly game of human foosball.

Hillbilly Basketball
Take a free throw at a basketball goal 20 feet in the air!

Backwoods Barrier Course
It's you against the clock and a super-challenging obstacle course through the woods.

The Moon Walk
See how high you can jump in the one-of-a-kind bungee moon walk.

Hilarious Skits

The Dunk Tank
Dump your youth pastor in the tub!

The High Striker
Test your strength.

Smash a Clunker
Try your hand with a sledge hammer to bust something off our old car.

Wilds Camp Trip

It's time to git your dander up for a little Friendly Feudin'! We dun divided up the camp to hitch everyone up to one of three mighty proud (and sometimes mighty ornery) families: the Calhouns, the Hatfields, and the McCoys. Instead of plinken' at each other with their trusty shootin' irons, they'll all be fix'n to engage in a might bit more civilized pastimes--like competitions that are more excit'n' than watchin' cit'-slickers chase hogs, funtimes that are guaranteed to have y'all in stitches and free time adventures you ain't never gonna forgit! They'll even shake hands and declare a truce in the squabbl'n' so y'all can set yourself down to hear some good ol' fashion' preach'n', have cabin discussions, and enjoy excit'n' music. Y'all don't want to miss out! Let the feudin' begin!

THE WILDS is a 1,000 acre campsite nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Rosman, North Carolina.

THE WILDS offers each of its campers beautiful surroundings, staff and counselors that care, and practical spiritual direction.

Every day is packed with "funtastic" things to do, such as hiking, swimming, water trolley, land trolley, basketball, crafts, rifle range, tubing, big ball volleyball, water slides, table tennis, frisbee golf, lake activities, climbing wall, Human Foosball and the Giant Swing. In addition to all the fun activities, there is a focus on Biblical guidance and direction. A daily personal devotional time called God & I Time gives practical instruction in godly habits. Special services and chapels help campers personalize God's Word in their everyday lives.

Click here to see the pictures from last year's trip.

Camp is here already. . . and our summer has begun! I am very excited about the great time that we will have, but most importantly, I am excited about getting your teens away from the distractions of this world and sitting them under some powerful preaching. I look forward to what God is going to do spiritually in our teens. Follow along with the week on this website! I will try to post something each day.

SCHEDULE

Monday, June 19 -- 11:00am or 11:20am in Knoxville (Lovell Rd. Burger King)
Plan to send money for a fast-food meal on the way. We will leave on time.

June 19-24 -- Pray Hard! Our speaker is John Goetsch. He is a powerful man of God who has an emphasis on the power of the Scripture. Pray for your teens heart!

a Redneck Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas And all through the trailer
Not a creature was stirrin' 'Cept a redneck named Taylor.
His first name was Bubba, Joe was his middle,
And a-runnin' down his chin Was a trickle of spittle.
His tube socks were hung by the chimney with care,
And therefore there was a foul stench in the air.

December 16, 2005

6:00pm - 8:30pm

Come lookin' like a redneck.

Come with a redneck gift for the switchin' match.

Come with yur own bowl and spoon for tha dinner.

Come to the RazzleDazzle Holler.

Come with a buddy.

manhunt

A battle unlike any other. 2 teams face off in an epic night of hide-and-seek extreme. Every crack of a twig sends your heart racing. Every noise is an approaching seeker. The woods taunt you. Your senses lie to you. Some get lost. Some have never been found.

Will you be there?

Will your friends be there?

Farm Fest Trip

October 14-15, 2005
Friday night 5:30pm - Saturday night 10:30pm

$12
Includes Breakfast + Dinner on 10/15
Please provide money for one fast food meal

You're invited to join 2,000 teens from across the Southeast for Farm Fest 2005 on Saturday, October 15. You won't want to miss this one-day experience packed full of carnival-type challenges "out in the pasture." Along with the many games and activities, there will be delicious food, great music, and messages from God's Word.

Farm Fest 2005 will be unlike any other Farm Fest yet! Jonathan Edwards, a church planter from Utah, will be providing a horse-breaking demonstration throughout the day and will combine the demonstration with biblical application in a unique, memorable, and challenging presentation of the Gospel during the three services.

Jonathan and his wife, Chrissa, own and operate Three Springs Ranch in Marysvale, Utah, to raise and train horses for ministry purposes. Jonathan has been the director of a horsemanship program for nearly two decades. He also serves on the board of Northwest Baptist Missions and has planted three churches in Utah since 1978.

This is a Farm Fest you definitely do not want to miss!

Teenagers in grades 7-12 are eagerly invited and most welcome to join us. That means bring your friends!

Put on your overalls for the trip to the farm—don't forget the farm atmosphere and the type of activities. We do ask that there be no shorts, halter tops, tank tops, etc.

Friday night, eat before you come and hop on the vans...we’re headed to the farm! For just $12 you get a whole trip full of fun. Breakfast, a day of crazy games, activities, and a delicious meal served up at lunch. Bring money for a fast-food meal on the way home.

Bring some extra change for soft drinks, sno-cones, cotton candy, Aunt Judy's funnel cakes, Uncle Bill's pork BBQ, and more.

There are mulch chips that must be spread! Come next Saturday - there is something just for you to help share the ministry of Oak Ridge Baptist. Meeting needs at church and having a blast. Work for a while...then head to Pastor Jon and Beth's House for a cookout and an extreme bocce tournament. Saturday afternoon, September 24, 2005 @ 12:00pm.
