Summer Camp 2021 Wrap-Up

Thank you!
​Thank you for your patience! For coming home! For working with us through the changes... both planned and last minute. Most of all, thank you for entrusting us with the precious treasure of your children! What an amazing summer! Though we took precautions to keep campers and staff safe, campers still got to form awesome relationships with other campers and our incredible summer staff. They got to spend  time making amazing memories and having the most fun ever! And (most importantly) they got to experience the life-giving hope of Jesus Christ and were built up in their faith.

Value of Camp

From Parents:
"Hats off to the most wonderful and dedicated counselors. They went above and beyond in helping the campers and everybody else they came in contact with. Very professional. They made all feel welcome and valued. They are great role models for all the youth."

"My child has visited many church camps. Yours is the most spiritual. She loved First Word and special prayer time with her cabin."

"I feel like my little guy has had a whole new world opened up to him. He came home and immediately started teaching his little sister all the camp songs."

"Savannah didn’t want to leave and has asked every night if she can go back next summer."

"My son has never been one for going to camp. He is a homebody! BUT....he said this was by far the best camp he has ever been to and I think if he could have stayed the rest of the summer he would have. For days after he returned from camp he kept saying how he wished he was still there. This is a VERY high compliment from my son. He loved his fellow cabin mates and ABSOLUTELY LOVED HIS COUNSELOR!"
​
"My child had a rough year. She came home from camp a different person. Her spirit was renewed and rejuvenated. She learned great life skills at camp and I’ve seen her use them often since she’s been home. She can’t wait to go back!!!!"

From Campers:
​"My counselor was so entertaining! She taught me about God in fun ways."

"I love the acceptance and the positivity."

"I learned that Jesus will come back one day."

"I loved all the singing that I learned here. Swimming in the lake was also a great time. Sleeping outside was cold and fun. My favorite part was our river rafting. I am going to come back next year."

"My counselor helped me understand the verses."

"I learned that Jesus is our refuge and we can trust him because he is perfect, ever present, almighty, compassionate, and eternal."

"I love how happy and energetic all the counselors are. They really help motivate me to try new things."
