How theBOGG all got started!

Down through the years God has blessed in a mighty way the weeks of camp at Bogg Springs. What started years ago as one week of "teen" camp has grown now into multiple weeks of churches coming from many states to camp.

During the 1990's a consorted effort was made to re-focus our week of camp on the teenage student. Now more than ever, as leaders in Student Ministries the burden was upon us to make the presentation of the gospel - exciting, compelling, and relevant for all students. With that in mind, we set out each year to make this camp experience one that is scriptural, thematic and totally centered on students and their needs in today's world.

In 2001, our National Camp Week I changed their name to theBOGG
. . . and this year theBOGG has a great week of camp planned for all students - middle school through college.

We hope that you will find everything you need to know about our camp on this website. If you have any questions, feel free to call any of us on the the planning committee listed below.
