Pine Cove is currently working through potential church partnership for summer 2013 in cities throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, and Georgia.
If your church is interested in hosting a future Pine Cove Base Camp, please contact us at basecamp@pinecove.com. We are excited to talk with any church that meets our three basic criteria:
1. Mission minded: the church must have a desire to glorify God by reaching out to their community with the message of salvation through Jesus Christ
2. Be able to mobilize its people: the church must be able to get its members excited about assisting in promoting a Base Camp at their church, be willing to find volunteers to help assist our college counselors, and have a desire to follow up with those who attend a Base Camp
3. Available facilities: we will need some basic things for running a camp: field/ parking lot space, access to buildings, rooms, access to a gym if available, internet, office equipment, etc.

Hear What Some Church Partners Have Said
“There are people in our church today because of the week of Pine Cove who would not be here otherwise. There are people who know the Gospel and have embraced Christ who would not have prior to Pine Cove being here.”
-Hal Habecker, Senior Pastor
“Overall EXCELLENT experience! Thank you for allowing our son to attend on scholarship. We believe this experience has increased his knowledge of God and his desire to have a relationship with him.”
–Grace Community Church Camper Parent
“This week was so smooth and he couldn’t wait to back each day. The high energy of the counselors was out of this world!!! Thank you for searching and choosing only the best!!”
–Crown of Life Lutheran Church Camper Parent
“Cost was very reasonable and days were packed with activities that you expect from a true camp, not a VBS or other kind of city day camp. I appreciate that you bring the ‘camp experience’ to the city.”
–Fellowship of the Parks Camper Parent
“When Pine Cove arrived on site, I had never seen a more self-sufficient team…to be able to come in, unload, unpack, and set everything up! They didn’t need hardly any help from me.”
–Joy Pickering, Children’s Ministry Assistant
“If we ever tried to do Base Camp, or something like it, on our own, we could not mimic what Pine Cove does with their staff.”
-Stephen Wickliffe, Associate Pastor of Missional Life
Why should a church partner with Pine Cove for Base Camp?
“I think the experience that Pine Cove has alongside the strategy that they use to reach people for Christ…Rather than us reinvent the wheel, knowing the track record of Pine Cove, we thought this would be an excellent opportunity for us.”
–Larry Robinson, Executive Director of 3e McKinney
