From the President
Why should you attend the Hartselle Camp Meeting?
One of the best-kept secrets in North Alabama is found right here in Hartselle. Among the towering oaks and rolling hills sits the old Tabernacle - an open-air worship pavilion that has stood for the past 127 years!
The Hartselle Camp Meeting includes 11 acres of beautiful landscape, rustic cabins, a modern, air-conditioned Dining Hall, and the original Tabernacle - which was completely renovated in 2018. In 2008, we began using the Puckett Youth Dormitory which is able to provide overnight lodging for up to 100 students, and includes a meeting space for 100 people.
We are blessed to have Tom & Leeann Sparks, our Camp Caretakers. Along with their two sons, this amazing couple resides permanently on the grounds of the Hartselle Camp Meeting!
The 127th encampment will take place in the cooler month of June. The dates are Sunday-Friday, June 14-19, 2026. This is the weekend BEFORE Father's Day. Our first meal will be Supper at 5:30 PM on Sunday, and our first service of the encampment will begin at 7:00 PM that night. Evangelist Phil Waldrep will once again preach on our opening night!
There will be programming for Youth and College students throughout the week. Ryan Aymett will serve as the Student Director, assisted by Will Miller (Boy's Dorm), and Elizabeth Aymett (Girl's Dorm). Overnight lodging for students will be available for the entire week in the Puckett Dormitory (click the "Youth & College" tab to the left for more details).
Kid's World is back, once again, in 2026! Daily programming for Children (current Grades 1-5) will be offered Monday-Friday, June 15-19, 2026, from 8:00 AM-12:30 PM. Breakfast & Lunch will be included in the cost ($100 for the week, or $20 per person, per day). Hallie Johnson will serve as our Kid's World Coordinator!
Two daily Worship Services (10:30 AM & 7:00 PM) are open to the public, and are the focal points of the Hartselle Camp Meeting experience! This year's Program Guests will be announced soon, but will include our friend, Phil Waldrep.
Make plans to join us for each service in the upcoming year to hear good preaching from God's Word. Our daily meals (8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 5:30 PM) are open to the public for a small price (Adults: $7 Breakfast and $8 each for Lunch & Supper), served in the Waits Dining Hall. Our Director, Anthony Lindsey, does a remarkable job with our meals! There are so many reasons for you to come and visit the Hartselle Camp Meeting!

As we head toward our 127th year, we invite YOU to come out and be a part of this soul-winning tradition! Please PRAY for God to use the Hartselle Camp Meeting in a powerful way. I can't wait to see you this year!
In Christ,
