I was in a board meeting the other night and we were talking about a visioning plan for the future of Calvin Crest. It was an introduction to the discussion that will take a lot longer in the near future but it was a good beginning. Looking at what immediate needs in the facilities, 5 years, 10 years, and then it jumped to 50 years.
Fifty years from now what will camping be like. I am sure it had many of us thinking. I was thinking at first, what will we need to be doing, then I thought what will the people of the valley and surrounding areas be doing that we will need to be reacting to?
What will the moral issues be? What will the communication devices, if any, be like? What struggles will people be facing. What will technology, economics, etc do to the family and what will that do to the thinking of children and then what will that cause culture to reflect.
Will we have individual rocket suits? Computers be faster than they are now? Will people be wearing a lot of aluminum foil? Will there be a George Z. Bush in the White House? Will people still blog? Will they show up for any church services?
Will the Emergensia be the traditional service and the college students will rebell?
Will anyone remember me?

Personally, I intend to wear as much aluminum foil as possible.
And computers will be faster than they are today. Tomorrow.
And maybe in fifty years camping will be effective simply because people will escape computers for a week.
Unless we start a computer camp.
The big question is: will there still be naked fluming?

I can not wait to rest in the hydroponic apple orchard with virtual trips to Gethsemane while eating dehydrated Neopolitan ice cream.
