Spring Events
Iowa Hometown History on March 17 entertained over 80 participants. Guest author Larry Stone, storyteller Paul Little and historian David Rambow shared stories of how our communities and landscapes came to be as they are.
Schools - both public and private - return to Ewalu this Spring for Outdoor Education. Teachers and Ewalu staff will lead classes, foster teamwork on our Cooperative Course and teach hands-on environmental stewardship. Kids and adults will again enjoy this unique opportunity to learn character and build a community that lasts. More...
The Dirty Feet Retreat for middle school youth was March 27-29. Faith talks, fellowship, the Zipline, new friends, awesome counselors, games, tasty food and a hilarious variety show marked a fantastic weekend retreat for youth.
Volunteer Work Weekend Ewalu is preparing for the summer season! The first weekend of May is reserved each year for volunteers...like you, your family or a group from your church or community. All are welcome! Have fun while accomplishing important work for this extension of your church's ministry. Meals and lodging are provided. More... |

2008 Fall Festival
and Quilt Auction
 The Fall Festival brought concessions, music, a worship service, crafters, games for kids, a live broadcast by WMT radio's Leo Greco, a hearty lunch, and of course the quilt auction! The weather was even beautiful. Thanks to everyone who came to celebrate and support outdoor ministry. Your prayers, volunteerism, participation and donations help Camp Ewalu to continue providing a great summer Bible camp and year-round programs for all ages.
The 2008 Quilt Booklet is now online. (Print double-sided for best viewing.) Or, contact Ewalu if you would like to request that a booklet be sent to you by mail.
 Ewalu Welcomes
Visitor from Namibia
The staff at Camp Ewalu were honored recently to welcome Pastor Paul Hatani
Kisting of Namibia. During his tour on Nov. 25th, Pastor Kisting visited about summer camp
ministry. As part of his tour in the U.S., Pastor Kisting came to Ewalu to gain a better
understanding of what his fellow Namibians experience during a typical summer of outdoor
ministry in Iowa. Full story
 Weathering the 2008 Summer Storms
Rain, rain, rain! Although the
spring storms washed out Ewalu's service road and one footbridge floated away in the
Maquoketa River, none of our buildings or program areas were adversely affected. All
programs were able to continue with some adjustments due to weather. Together with
summer staff, campers, donors, volunteers and board members, we give thanks to God for
another powerful season of Christ-centered ministry at Camp Ewalu.
