Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Senior high schoolers began attending the Howe Conference in large numbers by the 1950s. Later the camp names were changed to the Bishop White and Bishop Gray camps in the 1970s.
In the 1980s, the venue of the camp was moved to Camp Alexander Mack on the shores of Lake Waubee in Kosciusko County. The focus of the youth ministry changed to younger students from third to ninth grade. The curriculum consist of Bible teachings mixed with real life experiences. Senior High students have been given more recently the opportunity to take a mission trip. Camp New Happenings, created by Charlotte Strowhorn of St. Augustine's, Gary, serves children aged 8 to 11 who have experienced the incarceration of a parent or care giver. This week-long overnight camp is also held at Camp Alexander Mack.
