This year's theme is Groundwork. We will be discovering all about the groundwork Christ did for our faith through Bible stories, Small Group, and spending time with other Christ followers.
Each day at camp starts with a Bible story, worship songs and games. Every day at camp is different with 4-5 activities throughout the day! Camp days will always include small group time when they talk about the Bible story they learned that morning and how it applies to their lives. Other activities include hiking, sling shots, tree climbing, water games, orienteering, fire building, free play time, sports like volleyball, soccer, kiddie pool kickball, basketball, gaga ball, giant slip n slide , arts and crafts, and so much more!
Groundwork is our theme for this summer is referred to as Adventure camp of our basic weeks of camp. We also offer specialty weeks of camp like Drama, Archery, and Sports Camps. If you register for any of our specialty weeks of camp, please know that your camper will not be doing all the other camp activities. Their camp activities will be dominated by the specialty. They will always get the Bible story and small group time together.
Archery Camp will have 2 sessions per day learning basic archery skills, building each day from the ground up with stance, grip, draw, hold, release. Camp has USA Archery trained staff running the program. Outside of the archery sessions, campers will enjoy all the other camp activities.
Drama Camp will be producing a musical at the end of the week. Campers will practice music, blocking, and choreography. They will spend most of each day in the chapel at rehearsals, but will also enjoy all the water activities to get wet and have some fun! Drama camp is an overnight only option to have more time for rehearsal.
Sports Camp focuses on drills and skills of sports like volleyball, basketball, soccer, and flag football. Your camper doesn't need to be an expert any of these sports, but be willing and open to coaching and trying new things like a giant soccer ball, or tiny goals to help build skills and teamwork! Sports campers will still do other camp water activities like the slip n slide and kiddie pool kickball.
Survival Skills Camp is going to be focusing on how you would live life off the grid! Cooking over a fire, Starting fires in harsh conditions, Shelter building, orienteering, And lots more! Your camper does not need to have any experience in these things. We plan on introducing them in fun teambuilding environments!
S.T.E.M Camp is a day camp only week that is going to be focusing on the fun creative side of S.T.E.M by learning about simple machinery in nature and teambuilding engineering challenges - Our goal is to spark their curiosity and get them excited for school to start!
We want every kid to experience camp! Limited scholarships are available, please click here to fill out a scholarship request form.
CIT Program
The Counselor-in-Training (CIT) program is a behind-the-scenes look at camp. We want to pour into our CITs and help them grow deeper in faith and learn some leadership skills along the way. CITs will help with rec set up and clean up, serve food in the dining hall and probably take out the trash. They will also join campers during large group and worship, have their own mentor and devotions time, and still get to do the "fun parts" of camp like slingshots and archery. At the end of the summer, your CIT will receive a letter of volunteer service hours earned during the week and hopefully earn a letter of recommendation! We only have room for a few girls and boys each week of camp so register early to ensure a spot! There are also Day Camp spots for 6 CITs. Day Camp CITs will need to pack a lunch each day. All CITs are asked to attend an Orientation Class and do online training. CITs must be entering 9th -12th grade to participate and we also ask CITs to attend camp as a camper for High School week, which is Session 1 for summer 2025!
Day Camp CITs is $75 per week. Overnight CITs is $150 per week. Each CIT will receive a leader T-shirt, devotional, water bottle and drawstring bag. There are no discounts for CITs as this cost only cover supplies and food for the week. If your CIT is coming for multiple sessions, please reach out for a discount, but your CIT will be asked to bring their supplies (water bottle, t-shirt, etc) back each week!
