You Can Help Change a Life
Summer camping at Camp Wightman has been happening for the past fifty-four summers and as the fiftieth anniversary poster said "50 Years of Life Changing Experiences." Quite often, we will have visitors make their way back to Camp to take a trip down memory lane. On more than one occasion, we've heard stories of how spending summers at Camp Wightman changed their lives.
Following an exhaustive search process, Mr. Thomas Hall has been called to be ABCCONN's Minister of Camping and Conferences. Tom and his wife Tink Rabey-Hall will be moving to camp in January and he will begin his duties on January 17, 2012.
