Family Camp
. . . Join us July 6th - 8th, 2012, for Pilgrim’s annual Family Camp at Lakeview United
Methodist Campground on Townline Lake. The camp is located off M-46 between Six Lakes and Lakeview in Montcalm County.
We have reserved a clustered area that can suit both tent and RV camping. Each camp site in our cluster is shaded, has
15/30/50 amp service, water, fire rings, and a picnic table. The Campground has restrooms/showers, wood for sale, a dump station,
honey wagons to rent, bike/boat rentals, and a camp store. Leashed dogs also are welcome.
.
The camp maintains a boat launch and an excellent swimming beach. The weekend is meant to relax and get to
know some of your Pilgrim family a little bit better. Worship is held on Sunday morning on the lakefront followed by an awesome
opportunity to be baptized by submersion in the lake (see Pastor Ken if you are considering baptism.)
