Family Camp Program
What to expect
Summer Family Camp is about bringing your family together for a vacation that has lasting spiritual impact. It’s a way for them to make new friends, be encouraged in their walk with God, and experience His love deeply.
Youth and Children’s Program
Each week of family camp features a full youth and children’s program with age-graded classes. Each class is led by two camp teacher-counselors who share God’s word and lead games and activities that reinforce the message of the day.
Each morning, the youth and children meet with their teachers in four classes from nursery to teens. Parents drop off and pick up their children age 7 and under, while kids age eight and older meet their teachers in their class locations.
In the afternoons, kids can ride the giant swing, practice archery, visit the game room and play ping-pong, foosball, air-hockey or carpet ball, take a refreshing dip in the creek, or create a beautiful sand-blasted wood sign displaying their original artwork or a favorite scripture verse.
Each evening, the entire family comes together for praise and worship in the Rotunda. After that, the youth and children are released to their classes with their teachers, while our guest speaker teaches the adults.
