This week-long experience is designed for campers who are ready for that full week away from home. Two mature Christian counselors are assigned to each cabin group to help campers have a great overnight camping experience. Campers will experience a wide variety of activities with their cabin groups.
What makes this week different from the 8-10 age group? The 9-11 age group is the youngest one that will have the low ropes challenge course as one of their activities, and they will also get to enjoy a night swim one evening right before bed. Bedtime will be slightly later, as well.
