God Moments have been a theme at Camp Howard this summer after a talk during staff training on the topic. Staff were challenged to find God Moments during the summer and what better place than outdoors in nature for young men and women to practice experiencing the presence of God in their lives.

God moments include a long list of encounters from profound alone moments to the great joy of friendship. Cougar awards, the 70 year tradition at Camp Howard of awarding the top camper in each cabin for their living out Christian values, is definitely a God Moment for those 30 some campers who receive the award. It is a moment in time when their good works are emphasized, celebrated and awarded.

First Time Cougar Award winners are pictured in the attached film.
