In the breezy, blueberry-muffin-stacked state of Michigan, many kids lovingly known as ‘Fish-n-Chips,’ participate in a super cool activity - Fishing! Can you guess why they are nicknamed ‘Fish-n-Chips’? Well, it’s because they love fishing and, of course, crunching on chips, while waiting for the fish to bite! Michigan, shaped like a mitten-hand, is a wonderland for these little Fish-n-Chips. With more than 11,000 lakes, streams, and rivers, it’s like their very own water playground. This state is so water-filled, someone told me you can't swing a catfish without hitting a body of water! These little Fish-n-Chips have a secret leader, Captain Bubblebeard. He is a jolly, stout man, with sparkling eyes, rosy cheeks, and a fluffy white beard filled with bubbles, which pop out every time he laughs. Kids love his hearty laugh which sounds like ‘HO-HO-SPLASH!’ Captain Bubblebeard, with his magical fishing rod, teaches them all the tricks of fishing, whether it's how to bait a worm or cast a line without hooking your own nose! Besides, Captain Bubblebeard has a magical fish-finding radar in his bubble-filled hat, which helps them find the best fishing spots. Sometimes, the fish jump right onto the hook when they see Captain Bubblebeard, because they love his fun-filled fishing lessons too! So, if you visit Michigan, don't be surprised if you see a bunch of cheerful kids fishing, with a bubble-bearded man, giggling and munching chips. They are just the 'Fish-n-Chips' gang, having the best ‘reel’ time of their lives!

Camp Concordia began in 1957 as an initiative of the Grand Valley Camp Association of the Lutheran Laymen's League. Since then, its mission has been to give children, youth and families the chance to encounter Christ in God's Creation. Through activities like swimming, archery, riflery, hikes, campouts, and more, campers get to experience the infinite love of God and learn to respect one another. All of this is overseen by trained counselors who are passionate about Jesus. In addition to having fun and making memories, campers also build strong missional skills and develop a call to action.
