WINTER CAMP

Why Winter Camp?

Fellowship with other kids is a HUGE part of what makes camp important! Making friends in the tween years is a key component to staying connected as students move into youth group.
 
Teaching solid Biblical principles is absolutely fundamental in Christian growth. Teaching at an age-appropriate level in a way kids can relate to is what makes the biggest impact in life-long retention of those principals.
 
Worship is just one way to express our love and joy to the Lord. Teaching kids the importance of worship and making it fun is a major element at camp.
 
Fun ties all the fellowship, worship and teaching together. The games and activities provided by the camp wrap everything we learn into a nice little package of growth and connection.
