Trek 2007
Trek 2007 represents the 27th year of Tennessee Trek. Dave Friedrich led the camp in "Seeking wisdom" where youth were encouraged to turn to scripture and the Lord for wisdom rather than the world. Over 26 High Schoolers and 30 Middle Schoolers participated in Trek this year. We had a large number of first time Trekkers and the week went smoothly.
