Gift certificates are available for any value – starting at $10 – and can be used towards ANY DuBois Center camp, retreat, event or even a camp store item.
To purchase, contact us at dcinfo@DuBoisCenter.org or 618-787-2202.
Fall is winding down at DuBois Center, and that means leaves are all over the ground! We could certainly use some help raking them all up and keeping DuBois beautiful.
If you’re looking for an afternoon of service and fellowship for your youth or fellowship group, or even a day with family or friends, come out to DuBois on Nov. 20 to rake the leaves. We promise we’ll let you jump and play in them as well!
We’ll also have the bonfire going, so bring hot dogs and buns to enjoy over the open fire. We’ll provide the roasting forks, condiments, beverages and, best of all, S’MORE FIXIN’S! There are also plenty of rakes already on-site.
You and your group can arrive anywhere between noon and 3 p.m., and depart between 4 and 6 p.m. Please RSVP so we know how many to expect – call 618-787-2202 or email dcinfo@DuBoisCenter.org.
Save the Date! Come in out of the cold and get ENERGIZED! This fun, somewhat frenzied dice game is so easy to learn, anyone can play! Last year’s event was wonderfully intergenerational with children, youth and adults of all ages playing and laughing together. St. Paul UCC in Columbia will open its doors at 6:30 pm on Saturday, February 6 for an evening of fun and fellowship to support the ministry of DuBois Center. Play begins at 7 pm. The cost to play is $10 per person. And there’s more! Also featured are two silent auctions, one with gift baskets and other fun items, the other with purses, as well as a 50/50 drawing. Snacks and soda are also available for purchase to support the cause.
Check out this flyer and share it with your church and your friends. Advance tickets are available, as seating is limited. Details are included on the flyer. Plan now to have a FANTASTICALLY FUN SATURDAY NIGHT on February 6. (Back-up date for inclement weather is February 13.) This fun, family-friendly event is sponsored by Region 2.
Taking place before DuBois Center’s annual Fall Festival on October 4, the DuBois Dash will support the center and its summer camp programs. Participants can choose either the 5K Trail Run or the 1 Mile Fun Walk. The Run will be timed with prizes awarded to the top male and female performers in each age bracket.
Registration will be held from 8:45 a.m. to 9:15 a.m. on the day of the race, with pre-race activities, including a short chapel service, starting at 9 a.m. The race will begin at 9:30 with an awards ceremony taking place after the conclusion of the race. Then, all participants are invited to stay and join in the fun at the Fall Festival from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
DuBois Center’s Fall Festival is held each year and features a variety of craft booths, musical entertainment, delicious food, activities for the children, horseback riding, hayrides and more.
