2013 Has Begun!

2013 has started off on a high note! We've already had two different camps come and it has been a total blast! Kids are learning new skills on the mountain, eating great food (this is not your normal camp food, yum!) hanging out and playing games. We already had tons of campers tell us how much camp has impacted their lives and how they'll never be the same. We couldn't ask for anything more! We are so excited to see what else happens this winter!

                 **********************************************************

The Station is proud to announce that we were awarded a $3000 grant from the Kelly Clark Foundation to help inner city and at-risk youth come to camp! Thank you so much Kelly Clark Foundation! We can't wait to meet the campers who will be getting the opportunity to come to camp this winter!

Winter is in full swing, but it's already time to start thinking about summer. We are starting to book our summer camps, so if you know any groups that would be interested in an awesome time in Mammoth this summer, contact us and let us know! Mammoth is truly an outdoor playground offering hiking, kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing, skateboarding and more! Come out to The Station for the summer camp experience of a lifetime!

A New Season

Winter has arrived in Mammoth! The mountain opened up a few weeks ago, and more and more terrain is opening everyday. Today it's snowed several inches in the last few hours. It's truly a Winter Wonderland at The Station today!

Here at The Station we are really excited for these changes, because it means our winter camps are just around the corner! We have been booking more camps and cabin rentals and are expecting God to bring in lots more camps this winter and do some amazing things at camp. Personally, I can't wait until the kids show up! 

With the new season has also come several new staff members and interns! Allow me to introduce to you:

 Jeff Pao - Snowboard Coach/Right Hand Man

 Jeff returns on staff this winter after interning with The Station last winter. Jeff comes from the San Fernando Valley but is stoked about living in Mammoth because he loves skateboarding and snowboarding. Jeff helps leads youth group for Church on the Mountain and is looking forward to pouring into kids who come to camp both on the mountain and off. 

 

Justin Bell - Maintenance Man

 Justin has come to us from Southern California and is interning as Mr. Fix It! Whether it's driving the snowcat, fixing the garbage disposal or changing a lightbulb, Justin helps keep camp running smoothly. He's also an amazing worship leader and is going to bless our socks off at camp this winter! Justin is also attending the Mammoth Lighthouse School of Ministry and also loves boarding on the mountain and fishing with his Dad whenever possible.

Amy Van Ollefen - Camp Administrator

Amy is from the windy city of Chicago, and moved to Mammoth to intern with The Station and attend the Lighthouse School of Ministry. She loves Chicago but is happy to have a mountain to go with the cold snowy weather. Now that it's seriously snowing, she is excited to ski the mountain. Amy does lots of office and admin and can't wait for camp to start! Amy has been a competitive swimmer for over 15 years and a coach for almost 10 years and is working with Snowcreek Athletic Club to help people in Mammoth learn that you can enjoy water even when it isn't frozen.

Kadence Eggleston - Our Newest Arrival!

Congratulations to Gena and Ben Eggleston on thier brand new baby girl Kadence! By far the cutest member of our team. Gena was our Assistant Camp Director and will be doing the camps bookkeeping while on maternity leave. We sure hope she brings this beautiful girl around to visit us often!

 

 If you want to be a part of our team this winter (and who wouldn't, we're pretty awesome!) it's not too late! The Station is still looking for staff, interns and volunteers, so contact us for more info! 

Happy Winter!
