Help Us Make a
Difference
in Your Community
I
magine if you had an eager team
of faithful, hard-working young
adults for a few days. What could
you accomplish in your community in
Christ’s name? Could you complete a
work project for a family who has
gone through some difficult times?
Could you work with the local food
pantry and get the shelves stocked?
Could you arrange for a Bible study
and concert at a nursing home or
assisted living center? The
possibilities are many, and the
opportunity is real!
Last summer, Badlands
Ministries’ summer staff did service
and outreach projects in some of the
communities where we provided day
camp. We also sent staff to Dickinson
on Mondays through Thursdays
during the month of July to administer
a USDA Summer Food Program and a
free community day camp. We would
like to expand our service this
summer, and we would appreciate
any ideas you have regarding how we
could best serve your community.
Feel free to call the camp office at
701-623-4332 or e-mail us at
[email protected] with
your ideas. Help us bring faith to life
and make a difference!

Intro to Summer 2015
A New Face at Badlands
Ministries!
My name is Tina Vaughan, and I am
the new Director of Guest Relations
and High Ropes. Originally from
Waverly, Iowa, I am a lifelong
member of the Lutheran Church and
have been active in outdoor ministry
since my teen years. After completing
my degree in religion from Augsburg
College in 2011, I left the Twin Cities
for North Dakota. I am excited to be
exploring a new part of God's
creation here in the Badlands, and to
be part of the thriving ministry found
at our camp!
Program Highlights
C
ampers at Badlands Ministries
this summer will be learning
about God's never ending
love—studying the Old Testament stories
of God's promises to Abraham, Israel,
Ruth, Jonah and Jeremiah. Through Bible
studies, games, songs, and crafts,
together we will learn how to live an
active faith life as Christ's disciples today,
knowing that God's loving promises are
with us until the end of time.
F
or our junior high and high school
aged campers, we have added a
Confirmation Camp, which will
be a partial week of camp offering
confirmation lessons to coincide with all
the best aspects of being at camp: games,
high ropes, and campfire worship!
This year’s Badlands Ministries High
Adventure Camp will be traveling to
Yellowstone National Park.
Joyful Noise Music Camp will again be
offered for 6th-8th grade musically inclined
campers. This camp allows for
instrumental practice time and the
opportunity to see the Medora Musical!

Christian faith to the reality of
today's children and youth, and
our summer programs emphasize faith
growth, relationship building, love for
God's creation, and developing young
leaders. We are excited for yet another
amazing summer, filled with both old and
new programs, and to see some new and
familiar camper faces of all ages!

Christ” Camp. This camp is open to all
high school aged students and will also be
a partial week full of adventures, a service
project, late nights, and age appropriate
Bible studies and devotions.
For our Pioneer Camp, we are
continuing to partner with the Medora
Pool to offer swim lessons during Week 7.
All levels are welcome, and we will
provide transportation to and from the
pool.(Don’t worry, campers will not miss
out on any important camp experiences
while they are swimming.)

FREE Community
Day Camp
I
n July, we will be partnering
with Peace Lutheran Church
and St. John Episcopal
Church in Dickinson to offer a
FREE day camp program to
youth in the community. The
program will be held Mondays
through Thursdays the last three
weeks of July at St. John
Episcopal Church (across from
the band shell.) We are excited
for this incredible partnership
and outreach opportunity to sing
songs, play games, and lead daily
Bible studies. All children in the
Dickinson area are welcome to
attend, free of charge. Look for
more details in upcoming
publications!
“Love the Lord your God with all
your heart and with all your soul
and with all your strength and
with all your mind'; and, 'Love
your neighbor as yourself.'”

Servant Project
E
ach year, Badlands Ministries partners with an organization to live out our
Christian faith through service. Last summer, we collected many non-perishable
food items for organizations in Southwestern North Dakota. This year we will
be collecting fleece to make tie-blankets that will be delivered around the world through
Lutheran World Relief. If you are able, please bring fleece fabric or donate fabric
scissors to the project. Fabric pieces must measure 58" - 59" wide x 80"long. We will
also be collecting monetary donations for supplies and shipping costs.
Caring for all of God's people is central to our faith—the Spirit equips us for this
important task! We encourage you to demonstrate this in your own life as you consider
the needs in our congregations, communities, and world. Let's respond in faith to these
needs. Thank you!

Summer Staff Sneak Peek
T
his time of year is an exciting time
at Badlands Ministries! So much
planning and preparation is
underway to make Summer 2k15 a
wonderful camping season! This is the
time of year when we are out and about
recruiting young adults to fill the roles of
camp counselors, support staff,
maintenance help, kitchen assistant, and
camp medic. While our staff roster is
starting to take shape, we are still looking
for a few more applicants to round out our
team. In the meantime, I would like to
introduce to you a few of the young ladies
who will be returning this summer:
staff member!” Chelsea also has
a lot of favorite memories from
last summer: “A few of my
favorite camp memories include
the first time I witnessed the
buttes glowing, getting pied in
the face by Christina, co-creating
[the new game] Jesus Road,
Nightlife counseling, star
gazing, and meeting the people
who have become some of my
best friends in the entire world!”
Well Chelsea, I can't
promise I will be able to pie you
in the face again, but I think I can
promise you glowing buttes,
Jesus Road, stars, and
awesome people!

Chelsea
Chelsea Gilbert, a junior at Concordia
College in Moorhead, MN will be
returning for her second summer. This
year she will be one of our three Summer
Program Directors, along with Kaitlyn
Olson and Mackenzie Hicks. When I
asked Chelsea what she was most excited
for this summer, she couldn't pick just one
thing. She is excited for ALL the new
experiences waiting for her at camp,
including: “new staff, new activities, new
friends, and making camp a great
experience for every camper and every
badlandsministries.org
Kaitlyn Olson is a student at Bismarck
State College, and will be on our staff for
the second year in a row. She will also be
filling the role of Summer Program
Director alongside Chelsea Gilbert and
Mackenzie Hicks. I first met Kaitlyn at
Scranton Day Camp in 2008, where she
was an SIT (Staff in Training) for the
week. It has been oh so fun to see how she
has grown over the years and how her
faith is as strong as ever! Kaitlyn is most
excited to “see all the campers and to
4
teach them, as well
as learn from them,
this summer.” Her
favorite camp
memory was being
a counselor during
Nightlife camp and
having a sunrise
food fight one
morning!
Unfortunately, no
one had slept for
over 24 hours, and
the clean-up
wasn't very
enjoyable…but
birds like cold week-old spaghetti
noodles, right? We should do that
again!
In case you didn't know, this is
my favorite time of year. I get to meet our
new staff and reconnect with returning
staff. I am thrilled that I get to spend three
months out of the year with these
amazing individuals who dedicate their
summers to our camp and the youth we
encounter. These young adults put their
faith into action and provide an incredible
Valentine’s Day Dinner and
Giving Hearts Day Recap
service to our campers and supporters. I love
that I get to watch them grow in faith and as
individuals week in and week out, and that I
am able to witness them sharing God's love
with every person they meet. The best part of
my job is simply this: watching ministry
happen. Our staff gives of their time and
energy, through the good and the bad, the hot
and the cold, the mud and the grime, each and
every day throughout the summer. And this
reminds me of the incredible things God is
doing in our midst. So thanks to the ladies
introduced here and the other 20 or so people
who will join them in the coming months as
they embark on a journey of faith and a
summer of craziness. And thank YOU for your
prayers as together we minister to the youth
we see each and every day!
Blessings,
Christina Jorgensen
Program Director

Valentine's Day Dinner
W
e were blessed with new chefs for our 7th Annual Valentine's Day
Dinner Fundraiser at the camp on Sunday February 15th. Ruth
Hudson and her sisters did a wonderful job putting together a
delicious 7 course Italian meal! I am still full a month later.
67 folks joined us for dinner and together we raised $3,360 (before
expenses) for Badlands Ministries. Not to mention the $567.80 raised in tips
for the Belfield Youth Group who did an excellent job serving our meal.
A special thanks to Mary Abrahamson and Becca Kasian for all their
work setting up, decorating, and cleaning up after this event. Thanks also to
Cheryl Hewson for the live, romantic piano music, and to all who supported
Badlands Ministries by attending.

Giving Hearts Day Recap
T
his one day on-line giving event took place on February 12th this year, and Badlands Ministries was blessed to be one of 300
participating charities across North Dakota and Minnesota. In only our second year of participating in this event, we had a 55%
increase in new donor participation thanks to generous matching funds challenge gifts of $5,000 from Mike Parke and $2,000
from the Impact Foundation. Thank you to all those who took part; we raised $21,798.30 for Badlands Ministries!

35 Years and Counting
A
ccording to one study, the
average person believes youth
ends at 35 and old age begins at
58. That means our Fall Event is now
officially middle aged! If someone wants
to donate a red sports car to auction off for
the camp in honor of this milestone, we
will gladly accept it. Thank you to our
Fall Event Chair, Belinda Ballweber
Urlacher, and all the volunteers and
supporters for making this important
milestone possible.
Our 35th Annual Fall Event will
be held at the Medora Community Center
on September 20, 2015, with our worship
service beginning at 11:00am.
This is our biggest fund raising
event of the year. We look forward to
another fun-filled day of worship, great
food, fellowship, and financial support
for the Bible camp. 25 high quality quilts
will be available this year, in addition to
those sold at local congregations. (Thank
you to all those who work so hard to make
these beautiful, original quilts!) We
successfully shortened our auction time
last year, and will keep this a priority in
the future. We will have a silent auction
and a pie auction during this time, and we
badlandsministries.org
hope participating congregations will
bring two pies each this year as well.
We are also encouraging individuals
and businesses to donate unique or
specialty items to be sold as those items
are always in high demand. We also
hope professionals might consider
allowing us to auction off their skills
for a set period of time as many people
would bid on services from an attorney,
CPA, plumber, electrician, etc. In these
busy times, those kinds of services are
as good as gold!
Finally, helpers are needed
(and greatly appreciated) in the
kitchen, to display the quilts and other
items during the auctions, and to
cleaning up afterwards. Please let us
know if you can be of assistance.
Thrivent encourages
individual Thrivent members to form a
"Community Action Team" and
request funding of up to $250 for an
event. If you are a Thrivent Member,
and interested in helping us get
additional funds for the many areas of
our Fall Event, please contact the camp
office at 701-623-4332.
Thank you again for helping
make this such a fun and successful
event each year!

everal volunteers from area
churches from as far away as
Baker, MT worked hard in the fall
of 2007 to build 8 composite deck
platforms in order to have them ready in
time for our first summer at our new site
in 2008. We knew the time would come
when we would need to replace the
canvas tents (pictured to the right on page
7), and that time is here. However, instead
of simply replacing the tents, we have
another idea in mind. Per the
recommendation from our Facilities
Ministry Team and with the approval of
our Board of Directors, we would like to
build year-round cabins on top of our
existing platforms.
Each converted cabin, complete
with heat and air conditioning, will cost
$10,000 in materials. This project will
allow us to provide our campers with
upgraded sleeping facilities while also
doubling our capacity to host year-round
groups.
The plans are in place, but we
need help from our congregations. This
spring, a letter will go out to each of our
member congregations. We will be
asking for their support by either
providing funds for materials and/or
volunteers willing to work under the
supervision of Site Manager Bernie
Kordonowy. We encourage smaller
congregations to partner with other
congregations if interested. We look
forward to reaching out to our supporting
congregations regarding this project and
look forward to working together to build
cabins that will serve our campers well
into the future.

New Playground
This platform tent picture was taken upon

New Summer Games
W
hen you think of Bible camp,
you tend to picture camp fires,
Bible studies, singing, hiking,
and kids having fun. While there are
certain traditions that stand the test of
time, we also like to keep things fresh…
especially when it comes to camp games!
This summer, thanks to an Eagle
Scout project by Jaiden Stradling, we will
have a new 20' x 40' custom made Human
Foosball Table. (Jaiden is not the only
scout to bless the camp with a project.
Katie Veverka, Girl Scout 2011 and
Shiloh Lujan, Eagle Scout 2014 both put
in flag poles at the camp.) We will also
have a new life-sized Hungry Hungry
Hippo game, as well as a new game
(similar to Foursquare) called 9 Square in
the Air.

build our retreat center as an 8th grader, will
