Bible, pen or pencil, a positive attitude, the expectation to have lots of FUN!

Can I email my camper?

​

You can email your camper during camp at campermail@forwardbiblecamp.com
Be sure to put your camper’s name on the subject line of the email!
Your emails will be printed and delivered to your camper if they are sent by 11:00am. Camper mail is not delivered on the last day of camp.

Do you post pictures of the campers on the internet?

Yes. We try to post pictures each day on the camp’s FaceBook page. We try to get all the campers in at least one picture. If your camper runs from the camera we’re really sorry about that. Just know that your camper is here or we would definitely call you.
