This year’s High School Beach Camp in Panama City Beach, Fla., themed “camp:HD—a week in hi-def,” was an amazing time of Bible study, worship, fellowship, and fun in the sun, sand and surf.
More than 500 students and sponsors attended camp:HD. During the week, 15 students professed faith in Christ for the first time, 45 prayed for a renewal of their commitment to Christ, and 25 made a decision to be baptized.
Minister of Students Chris Lovell led in a special time of baptism in the Gulf of Mexico. Sixteen students were baptized in Florida, while nine others were baptized later.
Prestonwood North Minister of Students Carter Morris helped lead in the time of baptism.

Guest speaker Greg Pinkner’s down-to-earth yet challenging style struck a chord with students. Greg, formerly of the Dallas area, is Teaching Pastor at Fellowship Church in Knoxville, Tenn.
A popular group among students throughout the country, the Chris White Band led in an awesome time of worship during the week.
Memphis-based CAYERIO brought its lively mix of Christian hip-hop, soul, rock and R&B music with a message to camp:HD.
