Summer Camp 2023

You are mine

"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine." Isaiah 43:1

​

We need not ever feel that we are abandoned or don't belong. The Creator of all things calls us by name. He did not leave us lost and forgotten, but purchased us by the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ. Campers at summer camp 2023 will look into God's Word to learn more about God's promises to us.

​

Trailblazers  June 11-16

They will also enjoy nightly campfires with music and a message, as well as daily Bible studies that address their emerging questions about faith and life. 

voyagers   July 9-14

For rising 7th-9th & 10th-12th graders

For older campers, this session will include overnight camping, a night swim, later campfires, and watching the sunrise over the Arkansas River Valley from Stout's Point. It also includes the "Godly Man" and "Godly Woman" sessions, where adult leaders engage their campers in frank talk about real issues facing teen-agers in our culture. Hiking, night games, canoeing and horseback riding all also part of the session. 

 

Adventure   June 18-23

For rising 9th-12th graders and new graduates

High school students will leave the mountain for more intense adventures -- a river float trip, tent camping and rock climbing. They will also search God's Word for answers to life's tough questions. 

 

Family Camp  July 21-23; July 28-30

Two sessions on weekends in late July make it more convenient for working parents to attend with their children.

The two sessions are open to all families but designed especially for families with children too young to attend regular sessions of camp. The session provides an opportunity for children to enjoy camp with parents and grandparents participating to provide reassurance and help prevent homesickness. The session offers a sampling of regular camp activities: singing, swimming, hiking, canoeing, large group games, crafts, Bible study and campfires — with s'mores, of course! The activities are geared toward younger children, but entire families, including older siblings, are welcome.

Family Camp
For church workers    July 5-7

For 2023 we have added a mid-week (Wednesday through Friday) session in early July especially for families of pastors and church workers who cannot attend on weekends. Activities for this session are designed for all ages.

​

Families at any of the three Family Camp sessions can stay in the new retreat lodge or in cabins. Families can also save money by staying overnight in RVs or tents (Camp Trinity can provide the tents) in our campground or offsite .

 

We always thank God for all of you, mentioning you in our prayers. 1 Thessalonians 1:2
