Salkehatchie - The Book
We are pleased to announce that "Send Me! The Story of Salkehatchie Summer Service," will be released as a book in the summer of 2006. The book describes Salkehatchie, reviews its history, tells stories of families, volunteers, and communities, and offers a message of hope. It is a book of many voices, including reflections in the forms of poems, songs, and essays. And of course it will have pictures.
Salkehatchie has been an important part of the South Carolina United Methodist Conference for almost thirty years. We hope to share the message across our state and beyond.
The authors, Arlene Andrews, John Culp, and the late Art Dexter, have given the rights to the book to Salkehatchie Summer Service. Any income from sales of the book over the cost of its production and handling will be used for our service work. You can download the order form for the book by clicking here.
Camp Andrews Salkehatchie
Salkehatchie Summer Service has been a ministry of the South Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church for the past 25 years. It started as a single camp in 1977 and has grown to 34 weekly camps each working on anywhere from 4 – 20 homes. Over the last 25 years several thousand homeowners have experienced first hand God’s spirit working through Salkehatchie youth.
Service Camp Andrews began in the summer of 2002. After many years of Trinity United Methodists youth participating in Salkehatchie camps, our congregation felt a big need in our community. By the Fall of 2001, Camp Andrews was a reality. Our first summer camp was the last
week in July 2002.
