Recreational Ministries

CHUM Outdoors  
 
Family Camping ~ The weekend of July 16-18 at Ingleby in Centre County.  Cost will be about $20 per family for food for the entire weekend.  Group activities will include hiking, fishing and swimming, or just kick back and relax.  Come for the weekend, or just the day.  We are working on a carpool/ride-sharing to come up Saturday morning and go back Saturday night.  Contact Matt Haar at mhaar@saul.com or 737-1006 to sign up or with questions.
 
Pastor Tom to Lead Hike on 7/31 ~ We will meet in the church parking lot at 8:45 a.m. and carpool to Liverpool to hike up Mount Patrick to the ashram (a religious retreat on the mountaintop) built there by Methodist medical missionaries to Nepal, Drs. Edgar & Elizabeth Miller.  We will also enjoy a fantastic view of the Susquehanna River and hope to sight eagles.  The hike will follow a mountain road and is a relatively easy climb.  Hikers should bring drinks and a light lunch.  We will return to CHUM by about 2:00 p.m.  Contact Pastor Tom with questions and to let him know you’re planning to attend (twillard@camphillumc.org or at the office phone (737-5631) in the event we would need to cancel due to inclement weather, etc.
 
Attention Cyclists! Time to pump up those tires and get your bike ready for our weekend rides. We will be organizing rides for both beginner and intermediate riders so if you haven't been on your bicycle in awhile this would be a great time to start. Rides will begin sometime in May and take place mostly on Saturday mornings with some scheduled for Sunday afternoons. Contact Barry Iorfido (biorfido@yahoo.com) if you would like to receive ride announcements.
