Painting Project

Background

Streator Baptist Camp has been a wonderful resource for Illinois Baptist Churches through summer camps, group retreats, and pastor prayer retreats. The camp has seen many come to Christ and even more grow in their relationship with Him. One of the important things at Streator is limiting possible distractions and creating a pleasant environment that allows for people to reconnect with Jesus and each other.

Logistics

This project is great for a group of youth and adult. Each project should be able to be completed in 1 day if worked on by a group of 2-5 volunteers. If a large group of 10-30 volunteers wanted to take on all of these painting projects as one large project, then it could be done in 2 to 3 days. All materials for this project will be provided by the camp, including brushes, rollers, scrapers, and paint.

Lodging is available at the camp for free. Groups that choose to stay overnight will be offered a campfire and hayrides. The camp will provide snacks and drinks during the project, but all meals will be the responsibility of the group. The camp can provide meals for $6.50 per person per meal. A kitchen is available for groups who would like to cook their own meals (the camp manager can offer more details).
