2025 will mark the exciting debut of our new camp mascot, Echo the Owl. Echo represents not only the wisdom and strength we hope to instill in our campers but also the enduring faith that guides them. The owl, known for its keen vision and insight, symbolizes the clarity and understanding we seek to impart through our camp’s teachings. We look forward to unveiling his image in the near future.
Why an Owl?
The owl was chosen as our mascot because it embodies qualities that align with the mission of Camp Amplify. Owls are often seen as symbols of wisdom, guidance, and protection—qualities that we strive to instill in our campers. Just as an owl watches over its surroundings with a vigilant eye, we aim to watch over and nurture the spiritual growth of each camper, helping them to see the world through the lens of faith.
The Story Behind the Name: Echo
The name “Echo” was carefully selected to reflect the lasting impact that Camp Amplify has on the lives of our campers. Just as an echo carries sound over great distances, the lessons, values, and spiritual truths shared at Camp Amplify are meant to resonate in the hearts and minds of our campers long after they leave. Echo symbolizes the enduring presence of God’s word and the continued influence of the camp experience in their lives.
Echo’s Role at Camp
Echo the Owl can be found at camp, beginning summer 2025, as a symbol of the central place of God’s Word in our lives. Echo reminds our campers to stay grounded in their faith. Echo also wears a medallion necklace with his name, symbolizing the importance of identity in Christ.
As our mascot, Echo will be a constant companion to our campers, guiding them through their camp journey and reminding them of the wisdom and strength that comes from a life rooted in Christ. We are thrilled to introduce Echo to our Camp Amplify family and look forward to the many ways he will inspire and encourage our campers in the years to come.
