Activities at CRC

Activities at Christian Renewal Center

The Zip Line: Travel through the trees on an exciting ride along a 100' length of aircraft cable suspended 20' above the forest floor. The Zip Line requires the supervision of a CRC staff member and another designated adult during operation. Riders must wear a climbing harness. Schedule a time to use the Zip Line when planning your retreat at no extra cost.

Cable Swing: Jump onto the seat of the swing and float among the trees from a cable suspended 30' above you! A supervising adult at least 18 years of age may check out the key at the Main Lodge kitchen. Safety rules are posted at the swing and must be enforced by the person checking out the key.

Lamppost: Our coffee shop and bookstore is one of the guests’ favorites. We have an assortment of snacks and drinks at the coffee shop from hot or cold coffee to smoothies milkshakes, teas and Italian sodas. We have a selection of books, journals, devotionals and some CRC sweatshirts or T-shirts you can purchase.

Disk Golf: Enjoy our 8-hole disk course arranged from all over the camp. Use our disks or bring your own, with levels for fun and for the professional.

Archery: We offer certified archery instruction and open range for all ages. Self-supervised open range sessions are available to competent adults age 18 and over. Inquire with the registrar when placing your reservation.

Playground: Ideal for children age ten and under, the playground has a small Merry-go-round, swings, and two playhouses; one with a cargo net and the other with a slide and a fire pole.

Basketball Court: An outdoor small court (great for shooting hoops) is located near Cabins "Matthew" and "Mark".

Seasonal: Swimming in the refreshing waters of the North Fork of Silver Creek in CRC's lower campground area is a great way to cool off on a hot summer's day. A slightly warmer public wading area is located at the South Falls day use area just three miles away. Excellent swimmers only may swim at their own risk in the creek at the park. Favorite areas are below Twin Falls and Upper North Falls located in Silver Falls State Park.
