For our special today we have all our friends from Toy Story! Woody, Jessie, Soldiers, the aliens and Bo Peep! The toys need our help because Andy is gonna send them to camp better than you! We have to do everything we can to keep them at VBYC! 👽🛸

We gave all the cabins one bag full of costumes. And each cabin put on a skit for us!!! It was a great night here at Great Bear!

VBYC. A place to make lifelong friends, watch mister mooch get taken down by the token fairy, and rescue baby turtles that get stuck in the basement.

Next Level Leadership 2019. Nothing we love more than coming to the lodge for a camp-wide movie night. We are Goonies!

Amanda Janik came in today and taught our LITs how to respect and value themselves. Our attitudes, values, and our feelings are influenced by our experiences, family, religion, professions, politics, etc. It was a very powerful lesson and she helped us understand our self worth!

Hi everyone! Make sure to follow vbyc1950 on Snapchat to see what exciting things we have going on this summer!

Thank you Richard Szwaja for coming all the way from Western Michigan University to teach all our LITs (Leaders In Training) how to unlock potential and presence through compassion! 😁 It was so inspirational!

[Van Buren Youth Camp @vbyc]

Big thank you from everyone at VBYC to Jen Maxam Grossman and Michelle Herder Ness for coming to teach a General Session yesterday! They did an hour long course with us on how camp can be a protective factor, and how to make kids stronger! It’s all about Living Intentionally!

Hi everyone! Right now we're doing Staff training at VBYC. We're working on creating new strategies (in acronym form) that we can use during the week that will both help us become better leaders for you, and help us to communicate better with you guys! AWE. Awaken Wonder Everyone
