Welcome to the Home Page of the Pacific Northwest's Ever-growing Man Camp. The 2010 Northwest Christian Man Camp is scheduled for September 17 & 18. Theme: "MEN by God!" 
Watch for upcoming news about our paintball challenge. We'll have paintball activities the afternoon prior to the official start of the Man Camp. These activities will include team challenges (5 man teams against 5 man teams). Additional fees will be required for paintball activities. Jericho Paintball Ministries will be our facilitators.
Pre-registration costs are the same: $50 from now until September 1, 2010. After that it's $55. This includes food, lodging and/or RV hookups. 
Registrations are online at the PVCC website.

You can use last year's registration form if you have any of those lying around, as well. Just earmark your checks, clearly.

What about the 2009 Indestructible Men's Retreat? According to the vast majority of those who attended, it was a huge success. Colonel Fowler had great sessions, the band was excellent (even had fog!), the workshops were top-notch, and the food was the best!

The popular "Back Off" t-shirts are still available through the camp office (front looks similar to the picture on the photos page), or you can order them through an office in Lacey at 360-491-7372. New t-shirts are forthcoming, as well as posters, etc.

Who will be leading sessions, music, and workshops at the 2010 Man Camp? We don't have everything lined up yet, but we are trying to get our most popular workshop leaders back. Paul MacLurg, a favorite workshop leader from last year, will be the main speaker this year! Additionally, we'll have excellent workshops, including one by Lt. Col. Floyd Sheldon of Northwest Leadership De-velopment & Studies, & author of the new book "The Fundamentals of Leadership: Essential Tools of the Trade."

Special workshops just for the young men (teens) will also be available this year, including a fitness one where they'll learn how to get bigger, faster, stronger, and get in overall top shape. We're currently looking into having a workshop on paintball strategy, one on archery, and possibly one on MMA self-defense! 
In case you're wondering, we will have a "Simple & Effective Principles for Physical Fitness" workshop for the men, as well!

Rick & the man band do plan to return, so that's great news!

Mark your calendars and plan now to attend. Next year we do plan on having a streamlined teenage-specific "separate" stream of things for those younger guys. Yes, we doubled our size and created momentum - our goals accomplished. Next year, we intend for it to be even bigger and better. 

No longer do we call it a retreat. Real men don't retreat. No! This is a Man Camp. Join us if you dare!
