About
Alongside Family Camp, YOUTH CAMP is a week-long residential camp for grades 7 – 12.
A camping program for youth, grades 7 – 12, providing a variety of experiences within a wholesome Christian environment. This includes instruction in practical Christianity, worship services for inspiration and Christian commitment, recreational programs, opportunities for self-expression, and a variety of experiences with other youth who share their Christian values. We strive to help every camper discover how they can live out the “fruits of the Holy Spirit” (Galatians 5:22-23) — on a daily basis, demonstrating these “fruits” in the way they treat and respect their fellow campers, their counselors, other staff members and ultimately their families and friends.
