Camp Tillamook

Bill Rickert along with Gary & Debbie Westoby provide encouragement and support to the youth at Camp Tillamook.  This facility is a transitional work/study program designed to help troubled youth get back on the right track.  Through the Camp T outreach program, TCC is able to touch up to 75 youth at Camp T and the adjacent facility, Tillamook Youth Correctional Facility.  Since the outreach was rekindled in November 2005, there have been nearly 1300 attendances during the services at Tillamook Christian Center.  Bill also provides bible study for the youth as well.

Bill Rickert also visits several youth at TYCF who are less fortunate.  Bill Rickert also visits several youth at TYCF who are less fortunate and may not have visitors while they are incarcerated.  This is an opportunity to role model healthy relationships for the youth served and an opportunity to help share the Good News with these youth as well. Once a month, Tillamook Christian Center also brings the inflatable toys to camp and the youth enjoy the "Stress Reducers" as they are referred to at Camp T.  TYCF also participates with this fun and relaxing time for the youth.  This has been an awesome outreach and has been instrumental in helping many youth get their lives back on track. Each year for the last 3 years, Tillamook Christian Center also provides a "grab bag" of goodies and presents for about 75 incarcerated youth at both Camp T and TYCF.  Tillamook Christian Center also provides holiday music for the group as we remember the birth of our Savior.
