One month until Thanksgiving at the Pines!

Thanksgiving is a time to gather around the table, enjoy time with the people you love, and pause to remember all we have to be grateful for.

Come spend a few days at the Pines this Thanksgiving. Enjoy good food, time together, a little rest, and space to reflect on God’s goodness.

Start making your plans. We’d love to welcome you to the Pines this Thanksgiving!

Meet Johnathan DeRaps | Food Service

John has been part of the Pilgrim Pines family for years. He grew up coming to camp, discovered a love for this place early on, and has now spent the past five years as an important part of our Food Service team.

From preparing meals behind the scenes to helping keep the kitchen running smoothly, John plays an important role in making mealtimes at the Pines feel like home.

His history as a camper gives him a special connection to this place, and we’re grateful for the hard work, heart, and joy he brings to the dining hall each day.

We’re thankful to have you on the team, John!
