CAMP REGISTRATION FOR CAMPS AFTER MAY 1, 2026,
WILL OPEN ON MARCH 1, 2026
All our camps include program time, crafts, games, beach time and more centered around this year’s camp theme:
Linked by Love
Love comes from God — but how do experience God’s love?
We see God’s love in close friends and family. We know that such love links our lives, teaching us about commitment, intimacy, grace, and faith. As we seek to create and strengthen life giving relationships, we remember that such love flows from God, links us all together, and we give thanks.
