Camp Wapo's 75th Anniversary - Bluegrass Worship with Monroe Crossing
2023-08-06 09:20 - 12:00 | Camp Wapo, 1204 74th Ave, Amery, WI, 54001, United States
Camp Wapo is Celebrating 75 Years!
Seventy-five years of creative, vibrant, loud, messy, fun, challenging, heartfelt ministry. All because a few people trusted in God’s faithfulness and followed the nudging of the Holy Spirit. In 1947, the Hickory Point Resort was sold to 16 pastors for $1000 each. It was their dream to start a camp for youth and families on this beautiful peninsula site and in 1948 they welcomed their first campers. Seventy-five years later this outdoor ministry has expanded to three sites welcoming 10,000-14,000 guests year round.
You are invited to join in the celebration on Sunday August 6, 2023.We are full with RSVP’s for lunch but please feel free to come for worship!
9:20am Gather and Fellowship coffee, water and treats will be served.
9:30am Bluegrass Worship with Monroe Crossing feel free to bring your own lawn chair or seating is available.
10:30 Bonus Music with Monroe Crossing

The Wapo store will be open from 11:00am-1:00pm so you can stock up on Wapo gear.
***The weather is looking to be a bit finicky for our outside worship. But no worries…we have an indoor plan in case of rain.
Outside Plan – We’ll gather at the usual boat-in worship spot right by the beach. Feel free to park anywhere on camp. Lunch will be served in the dining hall starting at 11:00am.
Inside Plan – We’ll worship with Monroe Crossing in the CrossFire Chapel. You may want to park up by the dining hall, by CrossFire, or in the lot past CrossFire (by the maintenance shed). Lunch will be served in the dining hall starting at 11:00am.
