It’s that time of year we are recruiting students to sign up for our winter camp. It’s been really neat to watch our camp grow by about 20% each year. Although this is cool we want to keep things fresh. How can you take camp promotion to the next level? This year we interviewed a Yeti! Despite the language barrier, it went over really well. We showed this commercial in the main auditorium to encourage parents to sign their kids up. There was lots of laughing and a buzz about how well it was composed. Sure, it took some extra time to make this happen and I stepped outside of my weekly routine of things – but it was SO worth it!

When is your next event? Get creative. Do something loud, something fresh, something that will make people look twice…something that hasn’t been done at your church before. Oh, and if you need someone that speaks Yetish, let me know! 🙂
