Liz Henderson--Program Team Assistant

Today is a very special day at HoneyRock.  It is Bill Long's 60th Birthday!  Bill has served faithfully at HoneyRock for over 35 years.  Bill and his wife, Nancy, have 4 children: Amy, Trevor (and his wife, Cassie), Betsy (and her husband, Nate) and Ben (and his wife, Klara).  Their first grandchild was born to Trevor and Cassie in early November and is named William Jaden.  

Bill has worn various hats throughout his time at HoneyRock, but he works primarily with construction and operations.  Bill has been instrumental in constructing almost every building on camp, and is currently building the new Village Cabins.  He is a humble and godly man who has invested in the lives of hundreds of people who have come through HoneyRock.  From Service Teamers to Operations staff and beyond, Bill has touched the lives of many people and has consistently been a kind and encouraging teacher.  The type of integrity and steadfastness that is evident in Bill's life is a rarity in our culture today.

If you know Bill, I would encourage you to send him a note today to wish him a happy birthday and to share a memory with him.  We are going to be honoring Bill this afternoon.  If you would like to send him an encouraging note, please email me (liz@honeyrockcamp.org) and I will pass your message along to Bill.  

Today we are thankful for the legacy of Bill Long and for the way that he has inspired and encouraged so many of us over the years.
