I've never heard of this. It looks like a youth camp in Abbeville. What is this?
Is this another religious basedorganization like Masons or Knights of Columbus?

One of my summer league baseball teams I played on as a youth was called Woodmen of the World. Which was quickly converted to "Women of the World" by our opposition. Then shortened to just Women or The Girl Team or several hundred other variations of words synonymous with women, girls and fairies and whatnot. I haven't had much use for the organization since.

I actually went to this one year when I was younger....Dad had insurance through them or something. I don't remember it being religious based or anything like that, but it was boring as frick. It was also in like fricking August if I recall...8-10 people in cabins with no A/C, I left with a horrible heat rash.

I just looked on the website and it says the cabins have A/C now so it may not be as miserable.

I worked here one summer. Its not religion camp. Cabins have a.c. Individual showers. The kids get to canoe, learn archery, art class, I believe there was a ropes course/wall climb, entertainment skits at night. All of stuff for kids to do.
