The Power of Overnight Camp
Resident camp is designed to instill independence, self-esteem, and confidence in the campers. With so many different activities camp allows campers to try new things in a safe environment. Counselors go through our intensive staff training where they learn how to encourage campers to try new things, to make new friends, and to step out of their comfort zone. They praise these new achievements and are also trained in ways to create an environment where the camper feels accepted for who they are.
Cabin Life
Over the course of the week, as they play together, live together, and laugh together, each cabin becomes a close knit unit, with many unique stories and tales to share upon their return home. Through shared experience and spending so much time together, many campers form friendships that last well beyond the end of the camp week.
During The Day Fun
During the day Resident Campers will participate in a small group to experience many of the best activities camp has to offer. Lake toys, zipline, gaga ball, hayride to the farm, group games, and archery are just a few of the many camp activities that your residential camper might participate in. In a small group campers will get to try new things they might not normally choose while also forming strong friendships with campers in their group.
Exciting Evenings
Each night after dinner, residential campers participate in camp-wide activities and games that are exclusive to the residential camp experience. Each night brings new adventures and activities which the cabins participate in as a group. This further strengthens the bonds and friendships formed in each cabin. Every night ends with evening vespers. This is a short devotion time with songs, lessons, and prayer before the campers return to their cabins. Along with morning worship and our small group time, evening vespers helps us to frame the day, and all that we do, within the Word of God.
