Technology Fast?!?!

Yes - The Altitude Camp is instilling a technology fast for the first 3 days of each week (Wed - Fri). That means leaving your gadgets and gizmos in your bag

• cell phones
• laptops
• ipods / mp3 players
• pagers
• palm pilots / PDAs
• TV (except for group events or the Olympics are on)

Instead, bring boardgames, cards or other fun games to play with other Altitude folks. We really want to encourage you all to get to know each other and become BFFs. We'll have plenty of activities each of those days - so don't worry about being bored.

You'll hear more about the technology fast when you get to camp.

Interview with Coaches Jay & Karmen (Shorter College)

We had the privilege of interviewing Jay & Karmen Stephenson, husband & wife coaches at Shorter College. If you've come to camp the last couple years, you've probably had a chance to meet this awesome couple!

What did we talk about in our interview?

• How 2007 Altitude participants (Amy, Marc, Carson twins, Dustin, Godsave, & Allen) did this year?
• Who's coming from Shorter College to Camp 2008?
• What's God doing in their lives!
• Best question - Who would Jay fight in a boxing match, Jimmers or Avery. He has quite the answer!

You'll definitely want to read their interview.

One Dream, One Team

That's the ALTITUDE Project 2008 theme

One Team, One Dream
"There is one body and one Spirit - just as you were called to one hope when you were called" (Eph 4:4)

Together we have -

One Team
One Dream
One Faith
One Lord

Amen!

Yay, We're a Non-Profit!

The ALTITUDE Project is now officially a 501(c)3 Non-Profit! We received our status from the IRS in November 2007. What does that mean? Well, it means that you can make a tax-deductible donation to The ALTITUDE Project. Great work Avery & Greg!
