| Babcock, Ed | pastored@lifecentrepa.com |
I started at CHH on the
weekend the old barn burned down in 1961 (?) For the next 21 yrs I
missed only 1 summer. Took a few years off & came back as The Exe.
Director. Was a Jr & Sr Leader, EMT, Craft Leader, Venture Bound
Leader, Prgm Asst, Prgm Director & Camp Pastor. Heard Men of God
share their testimony around 100's of Campfires. This, the lives of my
fellow leaders & the mentoring of Jack Corbett, have brought me to
serve as the Pastor of The Life Centre in Pottsville PA. I think of CHH
& apply the principles I learned at camp every day. HEY! Win
somebody to Christ THIS WEEK!
Updated 5/14/05 - I flew out to LA in April for a Church meeting. Went out to the Rental car shuttle and who do I run into after 30 years? AL WRIGHT!!! It was a God-Moment. Love to tell you about it. He is doing great, has 6 kids, and is the VP of Developement at Green Lake Conference Center in Wisconsin. Livin the Life, Lovin the Lord. If you want to contact him email me |

As a son of one of the original founders of CHH I spent most of my weekends helping develop the camp." Captain Jim", passed away in late June this year going home to be with his Lord who he served faithfully for many years. My memories of CHH are inter-twined with those of my father and his vision for both CHH & Christian Service Brigade. Since I live in the Midwest I do not have occasion to visit the camp but remember helping to plant those magnificent pine trees that greet you as you enter the property. |

| Chapman, Brian | brian@parkviewcommunity.com | I was never a camper but spent every week of every summer here for 9 years. Everything I did from LIT to PD was rewarding and challenging, but the best was always KP. Since CHH I've done overseas ministry, taught ESL, and currently am on pastoral staff in the Chicago area. As with many of you, I am indebted to the work God did in me through His faithful servants at Hickory Hill. | 10/7/03 |

I was a junior
counselor and later a collegian back in the late 70's (75-80?). I
had the great pleasure and privilege of working with Jack Corbett (Tom
and Dave, too) and Al Wright. Seems to me I remember a
youngster named Sam Richbart who was one of my campers, too!!! Lots of
great memories, teaching archery, working in the kitchen, spending a
week "roughing it" at the NTO, working with Karl Polland, and
getting to hear "Uncle Joe" Coughlin speak at a campfire one
summer. God Bless, Jim Dunne |

I Love CHH! It Rocks. I
have been going to chh since i was in diapers, and i usually stay in the
"hill cabins" and i love them. i go every memorial day and
labor day weekend. the pond is awesome! so many memories! like the
year it rained and washed out the road, campfire songs, bonfires,
flashlight tag, canoeing (haha james), and horseback riding! We come every Labor and Memorial weekends. If you are a regular attendee of CHH you could prolly know me as one of the "Hill people", I love this place and i have soo many memories of it!! My fav thing ever was when we went hiking and me and my friends got lost on the way to the old mud pit. but we were really just right there behind the cabins. And the year when the road washed out. I miss the church services in the late evenings where I learned so many cool songs, like "little red wagon". the pond rocks!! |

I was a CIT in 1957 and then Lifeguard and Senior Counselor for many years there after. Your website is super, So sorry I had to miss the new dining hall dedication. Worked many hours to build the old one and enjoyed every minute of it thanks to the many great men that were involved. How come the history does not mention any thing about the "cabins" that Caz built. (Cabin 13 remember???) Added 12/4/02 - Just wanted to give you my new e-mail. Great to see an entry from Gary Brandes. He was the best man at my wedding 37 years ago. We met at camp in the 50's. We had lost contact with each other for the past 25 years until he saw my original entry in the Guest Book. Also, great to see an e-mail from Al Maue, one of the senior leaders when I was a CIT. Al, do you remember the big collision we had during one of the games? Prasie the LOrd and keep up yje great work. |
