“Reflections”                               of   Russ Yates
The property known as Holiday Park was bought by Russ’s parents in March 1971 and they started to develop HP
as a campground; moving here full time in 1977. Russ’s Dad was from a large family with roots in Missouri. Most
siblings became preachers or married one. Their Dad had been a preacher that started churches. Russ’s Dad died
on December 31, 1981 at the age of 53. Russ and both his parents were saved at the Easton Church of God in
mid December of that year. Russ, 31 at that time and an only child, helped his Mother with the campground, while
still maintaining his full time career in the DC area working as a union refrigeration and air conditioning tech until
his retirement in 1988. The two hours travel time back and forth were very difficult on Russ and his Mom. Praise
the Lord, along came a man named Richard Pepper; a friend who proved to be very valuable in keeping Holiday
Park going by working full time for years at no pay.

In 1988 Russ felt a calling to sing with a local gospel quartet (as his Dad had done with the Blackwood Brothers
Quartet in the 1940’s). In August 1989 Russ felt God wanted him to use the campground in some type of ministry,
so the first gospel concert (sing a long) with 23 participants was held. In August of 1990 Russ had 5 groups singing
and by 1991 started having multiple gospel concerts each camping season. In 30 years a scheduled gospel con-
cert has never had to be cancelled.

In 1992 Russ married Jill and he will be quick to tell you that she has been a blessing to him every day and helps
in all phases of the operation.

In 2000 Tom Kleppinger started helping Russ at the campground and by 2004 he was running the sound equip-
ment in church and at the concerts. In 2006 Tom also helped with another ministry called “The Servant’s Grill”.
Under the influence of Russ and Pastor Dave Stewart, in 2015, Tom gave his heart to the Lord. Tom remained a
good friend; in 2018 he passed away at the age of 59.

Russ shares that without God’s leading and all the friends and volunteers, everyone that has supported him and
Holiday Park, none of this could continue. Doug Fluharty helped for several years; he and Ruth Finch worked with
Russ in 2004 to start a Sunday morning church service. Doug played the keyboard and opened many concerts
with a sing-a-long and would play his keyboard for the church. Doug and Ruth have helped mc the concerts and
keep things on track.

In 2005 the economy changed and it was more difficult to pay the singers what was needed to cover their travel
expenses and help meet their needs. The full color Gospel Concert Booklet that features advertisers was a way
to help with the expenses. Ruth felt that the Lord led her to take on much of this task; and the Lord blessed our
efforts. Some of the current advertisers have been in the book since the first edition in 2005. This has been a
blessing and a help with the finances. Ruth still helps sell ads, mc’s concerts as needed, plays keyboard at church
and lifts our ministries in prayer. Russ and Ruth also sing together.

In 2006, another ministry was born. Mike and Anne Hallinan came to Russ with an idea; a mobile kitchen called
“The Servant’s Grill”; used as another way to defray costs, so that concerts could continue. Now in its 14th year,
many people have given of their time to help in “The Servant’s Grill”.

In 2009, another ministry was born at Holiday Park under the direction of Anne Hallinan. Holiday Park continues
to support the Shoebox Ministry also known as Operation Christmas Child. In the past 11 years Holiday Park has
packed more than 1200 shoe boxes and donated well over $15,000.00. Mike and Anne Hallinan have retired to
Florida but the ministry of the shoe boxes continues.

Russ says that without God’s leading, all the friends and volunteers, all the Christians that surround and support
him and Holiday Park, that none of this could have happened. Also, the advertisers and all of you that support and
attend keep us going. Thanks to all of you for your kindness, friendship, prayers and continued support.

Russ says if you have read all the way to this point, then you know that the most important thing is to let everyone
know of Jesus Christ and for all of us to impress the need to rely on Him, because the time may be near and we
want to see you all in Heaven.

Your Gospel Friends, Russ, Jill and Jane Yates

We were searching the internet for places we could become seasonal campers in 2005.                                    Holiday Park - 30 Years and Counting
Holiday Park captured us because they had Gospel Concerts once a month and seemed              From its beginning, in the late 1980’s, I have been privileged to minister in music at

next year. With limited food being served at the concerts, we asked Russ and Jill if we        been exciting to share the stage with some of the well-known names in the indus-
could start preparing more variety of food at the concerts. They graciously agreed             try. It is also an honor to play for audiences who truly love and appreciate Gospel
and that is how the Servants’ Grill came into existence, with all proceeds going to help       Music and for a promoter who has a desire to spread God’s word in this manner. I

           As I reflect on the times The Christian Troupers ministered at Holiday Park it fosters many fond memories. We sang there for several years and always
looked forward to that experience. The setting was simple and reminiscent of camp meetings. Many local folk were frequent and repeat visitors and those who came
out on Saturday nights often did not leave their own churches on Sundays, so as a singing group unless you were ministering in their church, you did not get to see them.
           Russ and his staff were so very welcoming and accommodating. The groups shared a comaraderie and fellowship and many new long lasting friendships
were established.
           In July 1995 we sang there and it was a very difficult time for me as I had just left the hospital that afternoon after my mother had gone to her eternal
home. Struggling with what to do, I decided to go to the campground where the group had already set up for the evening concert. I knew that in this environment at
that time was the most comforting place for me as the warmth of God’s love was shared through fellow Christians and they embraced me and my family. Where else
would I find that on Saturday night. As we sang “He‘s In the Midst” I felt God’s peace and the uplifting of prayers on my behalf.
           Thanks, Russ, for the many years of promoting gospel music in this area and your faithfulness to God’s calling. Many lives have been touched and changed.
I will always remember how many needs were met on that night in 1995.

    I will praise the name of God with a song, and will                                  Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive
    magnify Him with thanksgiving.                                                       yourselves. Do what is says.

My guess is if you traveled back to 1991 and told Russ Yates that his longest running group at his new Gospel Concert promotion would be a couple of local singers/songwrit-
ers who would change styles from year to year to include Country, Gospel, Rock and Pop, he’d probably think you were crazy. I would have thought the same, for Contempo-
rary and Southern Gospel just don’t usually mix, but that mix has made for our longest running concert booking since we started our family ministry in 1991. Russ took a
chance on a young kid who just got married and left the Speer Family and after a rocky start (you can ask him about that story), we have built a relationship over the years
that has stood the test of time. Russ and Jill have always been loving and accommodating to our whole family, as have the great loyal fans that have made Holiday Park Camp-
ground a musical institution for 30 years. I know Holiday Park has had its ups and downs, who hasn’t over 30 years, but it has been Russ’ vision and dedication and love of
Gospel Music, and of course, the providence of God that has made this milestone a reality. I look forward to June this year adding on to our record of being the longest run-
ning group at the Park, and I do for many years to come. Thank you, Russ for your love for the Lord, His people and the gift of music He has given us. You have been faithful
to your calling and we will strive to do the same for our King! 30 years is just the start!

We have been camping at Holiday Park for over 30 years. We were there when the             When we first went to Holiday Park we thought at best we were lost. In our minds
Gospel Concerts started in the 80’s. It started with a small group of campers and          we thought it’s no way anyone would ever come out here in what seemed to be in
it continued to grow as the word got around. We have seen it grow to around 200            the middle of nowhere to hear music. We were wrong it’s a wonderful place to play
or more. We look forward every month to the next concert. It brings a lot of joy and       music. But better than that because of the work of Russ and his staff it is a great
blessing to our lives.                                                                     place to experience Jesus and his love. It’s has become one our favorite places to

Coming to Holiday Park is like coming home. Russ has always made us feel like we were at home. Most people would think of singing at Holiday Park is like a concert set-
ting. Well, in a way, it kind of is, but so many times while being there I have seen people raise their hands, I’ve heard people shout, and I’ve even seen tears shed. I am so
thankful that when we go there we are at liberty to have church when the Holy Spirit moves. For that, I am grateful that God has given Russ a vision to have a place where
groups can come and sing and spread the Gospel and not put on a show. Thanks Russ for making Pine Ridge Boys a part of the vision.
