Former Staff 'Star Search'!
This past summer we started a deliberate effort to identify and locate the summer and full time staff who have served Red Willow Ministries since the early 60's.
We hired former counselor Debbie (Torguson) Pyle to spend the summer chasing down leads and using the phone and internet to locate our former staff. She has compiled an impressive list from the 60's and into the 70's.
We can use your help! If you were on staff, or know someone who served here in any capacity: Counselor-in-training, site manager, program director, cook, nurse, etc, please let them know we are looking for them! We can send a scanned picture of the year(s) they were here, and hopefully they can help us connect with more staff.
We hope to help arrange some staff reunions, and there has been some discussion among the 60's staff already. So stay tuned, and encourage your friends and families with a Red Willow Bible Camp connection to contact us this year.
We will try to publish one photo from the 'old days' in each of the upcoming eNewsletters. Stay tuned!
