Flamingo Shores 2026

By Brian McCurry

You never can predict exactly what will happen at Wellspring's Student Camp a.k.a. "Flamingo Shores!" This year we saw a live-action Mt. Rushmore, a shark being caught on the beach, and radio-controlled tumbleweed! Like we said, you can never predict what will happen at Flamingo Shores!

One thing that IS consistent year over year is the growth we enjoy together during this week. Our hearts for the Lord are always encouraged. This year we learned more about our worldview: where that comes from and how we can gain God's view of our lives.

We also grew in relationships with one another. So much of that happens in all of the in-between times at camp - in our bunk rooms, by the pool, at the beach, serving meals together, and so on. The hours we spend together at camp create unity and relationships that extend well beyond the week.

We also have a lot of fun! A few highlights of this year's camp were a "Star-Spangled Shores" theme night for everyone, unique guy's and girl's times to be encouraged to grow in our godly character, beach and pool time, trips to the snack bar, and always the best dance party of year including fireworks!

Thank you to everyone who sacrificed time and resources to allow us to go to camp this year! Thank you to those who prayed for us - for safety, growth, and unity. God provided all of those for us! Please join us in praying God will continue to work in our stellar group of Students at Wellspring. It's an awesome group of teens!
