Check out these stats and this Campspot article about the importance of camping, and how Gen Z, Millennials, Generation X (& even Boomers) are finding camping & "Together-Trips" to be a one-stop cure-all for many of the impersonal aspects in a modern disconnected society overrun by intrusive technology. They are finding what GTD found out 30 years ago >>> camping builds strong connections with other people (and especially with God) while rescuing you from the overwhelming pressures & distractions synonymous with the "concrete jungle". In fact, we see immediate healthy results as soon as people (myself included) spend quality time in nature with just the right amount of primitive camping to push them outside of their comfort zone and into the transformational zone. Don't underestimate the power of a camping trip with your family or friends... one trip can literally change your life... and one trip with Jesus can literally change your soul!! That's why GTD is committed to supplying God-awesome outdoor outings for the next 30 years, and why teaching classes on camping is part of our immediate future plans. We want to help equip families and friends in their quest to plan out their own camping trips so that those deep bonds & lifelong memories start happening right away!! GTD turns 30 years old in 2 weeks PTL!! Aaaaaaaaand we are already preparing for the next 30 years of ministry!! God is up to something special!!
