Join Us for Ben Lippen’s Engineering Camp This Summer!
 
The BLS Engineering Camp is open to all rising third through eighth-graders. The camp will be held at Ben Lippen July 11-14 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Students will experience mechanical and electrical engineering, computer programming with coding and robots, 3D design and printing, how to fly a drone, and more. The cost for the camp is $200 and includes a drone for each camper. A $100 deposit is due with registration.

If you have any questions, please email Jenny Thompson at Jenny.Thompson@BenLippen.com or ME Farmer at Mary.Farmer@BenLippen.com. We are excited to see you at Engineering Camp this summer!

Each generation presents characteristics that distinguish it from those that came before. Most of today's students, born between 1997 and 2012, are members of Generation Z (Gen Z) and have grown up in a post-Recession world where technology is as commonplace as sweet tea in the South. In this Parenting Summit, we will explore the unique qualities of Gen Z and what characterizes them as students, young adults, and people of faith.

Join us next Thursday, February 24, at 8:30 a.m. in the William H. Jones Center at Columbia International University. This event is for parents of students in Pre-K3 through 12th grade. Please contact Guidance Counselor Trisha Kirkland with questions.

Registration is now open for our Youth Development League spring programs! For more information and to register, please click the button below.

ISP Host Home Opportunity

Did you know that Ben Lippen has been blessed with 33 international students representing seven different nations in our upper school this year? Most of these students live in our boarding houses around the Ben Lippen pond. Our boarding houses will close for Easter Break and most of our international students will need host families for those ten days. This is a great chance to share the love of Christ in a very tangible way with young people who are far from their families and homes.

Would you prayerfully consider sharing your family's Easter traditions, food, and activities with one or two of our international students? A daily stipend will be provided to help cover your expenses. Contact Steve Sark at Steve.Sark@BenLippen.com for more information or to sign up!
