| Cabin 4 Renovation Underway! |
 Thanks to the Pallmeyer Estate gift and help from Texas Baptist Men Camp Builders and Volunteer Christian Builders, Cabin 4 is receiving an "Extreme Makeover!" The cabin will have a new, enlarged meeting room and additional bathroom space as well as the usual items such as new roof, windows, siding, carpet, interior wall board and paint.
This is also the first cabin to have the overlook deck built on the Brazos River Bluff. Plans are to complete the project before summer '09. If you have a group that can paint, build bunks or other carpentry projects, your help is needed. Let us know if you would like to get involved. |
| Plan Now for Summer Camp! |
 Even as the pumpkins, corn stalks and scare crows give way to nativity scenes and Christmas trees, it is time to give some thought to Summer Camp!
As of the end of this past August, the schedule for Summer Camps at Riverbend was full. The good news is that there is still space for you to join in with another preteen or youth camp for a wonderful week of camp. Click here to see the schedule, and email the leader for more information.
