Summer camp ministry will always be the heart and soul of Sunset Lake.
Phase 1 of the development plan addresses the most immediate needs of the camp. The projects in Phase 1 were chosen because they require a relatively small initial investment and can be maintained with the existing staff. When completed these projects will bring excellence to the summer program and provide a strong foundation on which to build a dynamic year-round ministry.
