Camp tour

---

Victory Ranch is a year round Bible camp and conference center. The camp is centered around a farm theme…they can have farm animals, hay rides, horseback riding, etc. This is on a more rustic side, with most activities outside. They work with a very limited staff, so they really rely on volunteer help. (But so did the other projects, it's just that Victory's needs are different. Boy, that cleared it up, didn't it?!) As we were getting our camp tour, Paul (the camp director~~a different Paul than Paul and Germaine) kept pointing out the projects that RVICS had done in the past. Paul and Germaine, and Nancy and Earl have been here on other years.

We’re 85 miles southeast of LA, and 80 miles northeast of San Diego. Our address is says Moreno Valley, but we’re just ten miles from Hemet, so that’s where we go to church, and do our shopping. We sit between Moreno Valley and San Jacinto and Hemet, with Hemet being the closest. Moreno Valley is the largest of the three, and San Jacinto is the smallest, and that’s about the only difference in them! They have the same stores, the same crops, and tons of people!

Ok, let’s look around the camp….

We're all together again...
Dave & Wanda, Earl & Nancy, and Paul and Germaine.

Building the patio was an RVICS
project a few years ago. Believe me, the shade is a necessity!
Look at the ping pong table~~I haven't seen the balls yet, but I'm thinking they must be heavier than we use, to need a this sturdy!

This green part is the dining hall,
and the yellow part is the office and gift shop.

You just saw the back of the
dining hall/office building, well this is the front. The small building in front of the office is staff housinig.

This is our room
for devotions, socials, and sewing (and eating Thanksgiving dinner!) It's to the left of the office building, as you were looking down on it. There's a large concrete patio with a picnic table and park benches. We're on the left in the last picture you looked at. Ok, you can't see us there, but just trust me on this one!

Most of the cabins have this
look to them....looks kind of southwestern? There's lots of that here in the southwest!

Our new front yard!!!
Earl and Nancy are beside us. Beside the yellow cabin (behind us) is where we have pop on the patio.

Far far away...
Well, not really so far away. Paul and Germaine, and Dave and Wanda's trailers are on the other side of our pop patio

The pool still has a tinge
of green as a result of the storm. But each day is clearer.
