Everybody loves camp. It’s the highlight of the summer. But, not too many fill a car with school friends they’ve invited to join in on the fun. In this episode of Steamers and Sodas, host Blake Smith sits down with Levi Blakesley, a very avid inviter when it comes to camping. Blake and Levi discuss the importance of camp experiences for youth, with Levi sharing his personal story of inviting friends to camp and the positive impact it had on their relationships. Levi suggests involving church leaders in creating a welcoming atmosphere, balancing religion with socialization and fun.
