One observation I have is that alot of times there are no follow up after an evangelistic campaign and the enthusiasm kind of fizzle out and eventually die a natural death. A STRONG follow thru is vital if one schould consider a camp for the unsaved. Most camps That I know are mostly meant for christians although some camps do have an evangelistic approach.

However, if the campers are poor Asian kids, the fact that they are just going to camp is an attraction in itself. Most of these kids have not left their village often. Another attraction for them is just to meet teens from other places bec they don't hv much opportunities to meet people other than those in their neighborhood. Also, the offer of 3 "nice" meals a day is v attractive. However, the thing that they remember most is the new games that they played at camp. Of course, if they received the Lord as Savior that is their lasting memory! you are right, the program has to be attractive otherwise there is no reason for them to come.

As far as I know, all church camps are catered for Christians. But you are talking of a different kind of camp, one for the non-Christians. The program will have to be attractive to bring them in.
