Barefoot Republic

Summertime is just around the corner but in our little home, my oldest boys are already having a blast at the highly anticipated Barefoot Camp! Four years ago, a dear friend of mine introduced our family to Barefoot Republic praising the wonderful experience her children have there. While technically it is a summer camp, the heart of Barefoot is what drew me to them:

"To facilitate Christ-centered relationships between individuals from diverse racial, cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds through an equally diverse platform of artistic, athletic and team-building programs."


You can read more about Barefoot's mission here, and enjoy some photo's of my older two boys during their weeks at Barefoot Republic.




 






"Barefoot exists to reflect God’s pursuit of His children through interests and passions, interpersonal relationships, and equipping students with tools for exploring and discovering God’s presence in their lives."  
  





One of the things my boys especially love about Barefoot Republic is their "group specialties".
These are areas that your child chooses to explore or further their interest, such as making of the band, Stomp {photo's shown above}, photography, videography, water sports, horse back riding, extreme sports, etc..
My boys enjoy this time so much and honestly, I've seen tremendous growth and renewed commitment in these areas of their life after returning home. 

Barefoot Republic began as one man's vision, to illuminate the Father's deep love for His children.
Honestly, I can personally say, that is exactly the experience my children have there!
We love Barefoot!
