A quick peek behind the scenes at Hume Lake Christian Camps. The Ranch House Report is maintained and updated by Hume’s crazy, creative, and committed program staff. They don’t know much, but what they know will be posted here… Tumblr (3.0; @ranchhousereport)http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="225" data="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3096507&server=vimeo.com&fullscreen=1&show_title=1&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF"><param name="quality" value="best" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="scale" value="showAll" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3096507&server=vimeo.com&fullscreen=1&show_title=1&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=00ADEF" /></object><br/><br/><p>Our Theme for summer 2009 is called “HEY, RUBE!” And it has a lot to do with Clowns and a little to do with Mimes. It will be an unforgettable summer talking through the idea that as Christians we are called to be the “salt of the earth,” and to show love to our neighbors. The question we will be asking this summer is do you truly care about the people in the world? Why is it that many of those who don’t know Christ are serving and loving others more than a lot of Christians? This summer we want to push, challenge, and stir something in you to get you to care about loving people around you and show them Jesus by the way that you live.<br/><br/>Visit one of the following summer camp pages for more info:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.humelake.org/ponderosa" onmousedown='UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this), "57fe3e234b362ee2098cb0d6a1ad33a2", event)' target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.humelake.org/ponderosa" target="_blank">http://www.humelake.org/ponderosa</a></a><br/><a href="http://www.humelake.org/meadowranch" onmousedown='UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this), "57fe3e234b362ee2098cb0d6a1ad33a2", event)' target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.humelake.org/meadowranch" target="_blank">http://www.humelake.org/meadowranch</a></a><br/><a href="http://www.humelake.org/sd" onmousedown='UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this), "57fe3e234b362ee2098cb0d6a1ad33a2", event)' target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.humelake.org/sd" target="_blank">http://www.humelake.org/sd</a></a><br/><a href="http://www.humelake.org/wagontrain" onmousedown='UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this), "57fe3e234b362ee2098cb0d6a1ad33a2", event)' target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.humelake.org/wagontrain" target="_blank">http://www.humelake.org/wagontrain</a></a></p>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/75935592http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/75935592Thu, 05 Feb 2009 11:14:17 -0800“I can’t beat Jesus.”<br/><br/> - <em>Rich Baker (during our summer opener planning meeting)</em>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/72622331http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/72622331Fri, 23 Jan 2009 10:35:00 -0800<p>I was left alone in the Ranch House today as Darin was babysitting and the guys headed to Fresno for a Youth Pastor Summit.

The seasons are switching fast, it seems that the leaves fell off the trees and now Winter is here. This morning the puddle outside my house was frozen solid…sad times. I wish it would just start snowing, then it would be worth it. Speaking of winter…plans are moving fast for Winter Camps. They’re just under two months away but with Thanksgiving and Christmas, camp will be starting before we know it. It’s gonna be a great season of challenging kids to get off their fences and serve God. Lots of fun new additions and improvements too. Boxsled Blitz will  be the best year ever! Ok, gotta go help Peet move an Art Kart.</p> <p>-SHEP</p>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/58190285http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/58190285Wed, 05 Nov 2008 13:13:06 -0800<p>Peet, Darin, Jay, Kip, Nathan (our Video guy) and I are about to meet and talk thru some video stuff for the summer. It’s cool to feel like we are so far ahead planning for things for this summer. It is strange however, because I feel like I am so focused on winter right now with our broom hockey video and other stuff, its seems weird to switch directions and think about summer right now. I am glad to know that we are moving forward so early.. It’s going to be a sweet summer.</p>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57979621http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57979621Tue, 04 Nov 2008 13:19:32 -0800<img src="http://1.media.tumblr.com/MjX4yaD0sfpq5n73y9zeuwBZo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Rich inspiring the crowd at the shoot today.</p>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57204534http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57204534Thu, 30 Oct 2008 19:02:06 -0700<img src="http://8.media.tumblr.com/MjX4yaD0sfp7ljzdG8f4GgSYo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Shep forgot to take his costume off at breakfast.</p>http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57136329http://ranchhousereport.tumblr.com/post/57136329Thu, 30 Oct 2008 10:22:35 -0700
