Fun family trips don’t just happen — they take planning. When the journey is planned well, the trip is enjoyable. When the journey is planned poorly, frustration and tension are inevitable.

Through the years I have raised money for camp in various ways.   There are a lot of great ideas.   One way that we raised a lot of money was with Papa Murphy cards.  We bought the cards for $1 and sold them for $5. They were worth about $35 in coupons.  Check with your local Papa Murphy's for details.  It was really simple.

BUT, that is not what I am going to share today.  With the summer in full swing, I thought I would share two of my best money saving and money making tips.

I don't know about you, but I love fresh ideas.  I love God ideas.  Today I think I witnessed a God idea and it is fresh.   It is relevent to today's kids and anyone can do it.  Dale Hudson is a children's pastor in West Palm Beach Florida.  He had in my opinion a great idea.

He was wrestling with the age old question of rewards.  He had the store and gave points for kids who brought Bibles, visitors, etc.   One day he had given three bicycles to kids who earned them and they turned around and gave them to kids in need.

Later that night an idea was born.
