In the great and grand state of Michigan, where lakes are as plentiful as stars in the sky, there’s a bunch of super talented kids who are part of a secret club called the "Mich-Art-gan Crafters". These kids aren't just ordinary kids, oh no! They are the artists, the creators, the imaginers, and the dreamers who bring joy to life with just a few strokes of their paintbrushes, or a few folds of their origami papers. Leading this group is a cool, funky, and absolutely imaginative character named Pencil Pete. Pete has a magical pencil for a nose, which can draw or create ANYTHING! Need a rainbow? Pete's on it! Want a unicorn with polka-dotted spots? Pete can sketch it in a second! You see, Pete's pencil isn't like any normal pencil. It's powered by the creativity of all Michigan children who love art and crafts! This incredible gang of Mich-Art-gan Crafters can make the most amazing works of art you've ever seen! From sculptures made of snowflakes on the shores of Lake Michigan to murals that can cover the high walls of Detroit's tallest buildings. They are the Picassos, the Van Goghs, and the Da Vincis of the mitten-shaped state! And the funniest thing about this enchanting group of talent? The more they laugh, the more creative they become! It seems like their creativity is fueled by giggles and chuckles. So, you see, there’s never a dull day in Michigan because amidst the lakes and woods, there’s always a child creating, a drawing coming to life, and most importantly, laughter ringing in the air!

The Huron National Forest is an incredible backdrop for an unforgettable summer experience. Since 1941, Camp Cedar Ridge has been providing campers with the opportunity to grow closer to Christ, explore new experiences, and form strong, lasting friendships. This camp's mission is to invest in the lives of its campers and facilitate their personal and spiritual growth. To make the camp accessible to families of all backgrounds, tuition costs are kept low. Camp Cedar Ridge is not supported by any denomination, so it depends on the generosity of donors who give to the Send a Kid to Camp campaign. All donations given to this campaign are directly applied to the tuition of campers. Camp Cedar Ridge is a wonderful way for children to gain an enriching summer experience, without breaking the bank. Donations to the Send a Kid to Camp campaign help make this possible, and are greatly appreciated.
