Accommodations

Sooooo one of my first priorities was to let you know about the sleeping arrangements. Let me just say, these cabins are legit. No, it is not the Hotel Astoria. BUT they are prurrrty nice. All of them have been remodeled and are pretty spacious with central heating and air.



Each lodge is in the shape of a circle. There are 2 large bathrooms in the middle with hot/cold water.

There are 14 beds along the sides. There are NO BUNK BEDS! NO CREAKING as you have to climb down from the top bunk in the middle of the night while still half asleep to use the bathroom and then *PLOP*...end up a fallen mess on the floor. Of course the "PLOP" was a loud one and everyone around wakes up to see what wild animal ended up inside the cabin.

(no. this is not based on a true story....stupid bunk beds.)

Be sure to bring your own sleeping bag or sheets.

About Camp Twin Lakes Will-A-Way


From the camp Webiste:

Camp Twin Lakes opened its second fully-accessible overnight campsite at Will-A-Way in Fort Yargo State Park in Winder, GA in May of 2009. In partnership with the State of Georgia, Camp Twin Lakes is managing this campsite inside the state park. Camp Twin Lakes funded extensive upgrades at CTL-Will-A-Way, including the renovation of all camper cabins, the medical lodge and other camp buildings, as well as the addition of a new swimming pool, high and low ropes adventure courses, archery and more.

Welcome and get ready!

Hello everyone (waves).
We've decided to make this blog so all of you can see what we are planning for our big service retreat at Camp Twin Lakes Will-a-Way. Our goal quite simply, is to make it the best activity for the North Point ward EVER.

This isn't the usual, "Yeah everyone. We're going to clean so-and-so's back yard by picking up trash. It will be great..."

We want it to be a memorable time for everybody.

We'll serve.
We'll get dirty.
We'll have fun.

And probably before it is all over, I will ask some of you to help me throw Walt into the lake. As you all know, I am short and he is what we like to call "large in stature"..

Please check back here regularly. We are updating like crazy.
