Adventurers (Ages 7-9)

Each day begins around the flag pole where we raise the American flag and recite the pledge followed by Morning Watch in our amphitheater for our devotional thought the day.  After a hearty breakfast you will get to explore the Skill Areas of YOUR CHOICE such as crafts, outdoor living, performing arts, action sports, marksmanship, and team sports.  In each of these morning skill areas we’ll focus on learning something new while keeping it fun too!  After a delicious lunch the whole camp heads to our newly improved beach front for some fun in the sun including swimming, tubing on the lake, canoeing and more followed by some much needed chill time in your air conditioned cabin.  Before dinner campers are able to choose from a wide range of electives such as archery, rock wall, mountain biking, vertical play pen, zip line, fishing, slip n slide and more.  Or you can simply chill by the snack shack with a treat and maybe share a game of checkers or carpet ball with a friend. Evenings are marked by an “all camp” large group game then flag lowering ceremony. Our day ends with a fireside complete with skits, games and all of your favorite traditional camp songs.  It is during our evening fireside that you’ll get to know God in a new and fresh way and learn that he loves you without condition or limitation.  We’ll show you a new way to look at who you really are and we think you’ll like what you see!  View our summer camp brochure.

 

Rise and shine, get dressed, and cabin clean-up

 

We are proud to raise the flag and recite the pledge every morning at camp.

 

We begin the day with a few camp songs and a scripture devotional.

 

Usually a hot breakfast like pancakes, eggs and sausage, etc... There is always cereal and of course juice and milk too.

 

Campers here will attend 2 morning activity selections made during the reservation process. Class options include:

Marksmanship, Performing Arts, Outdoor Living Skills, Arts & Crafts, Team Sports, Action Sports

 

We serve a nutritionally balanced meal. At lunch we also deliver online care package orders (Tuesday & Thursday). Our staff will usually take the lunch time to put on a funny skit after campers are done eating.

 

Campers head back to the cabin for some down time.

Note: Adventure Campers selecting an optional trail ride depart for the stables here.

 

Campers head for the lake where they can take a swim or just relax on the beach. Pontoon rides, canoeing, gau-gau game and more are also available as well as tubing! Horselover Campers are able to take advantage of a full menu of activities here.

 

Mountain biking, water slide, zip line, climbing tower, Vertical Play Pen, camp store, snacks, archery and more are offered during this time of free flow electives.

 

Maple glazed ham, lasagna, and pizza are just a few of the meals we serve at supper time. Mail is delivered at supper. On Thursday evening our supper is a camp wide banquet complete with table clothes and special decorations. Campers come dressed a bit nicer and we even coach the guys in gentleman like behavior!

Note: Tuesday evenings, campers head for the woods to cook their dinner on a campfire. We call this cabin night.

 

The program staff facilitates a camp wide adventure game or group activity.

 

The camp gathers around the flag pole while taps is played live on the trumpet. The flag is lowered.

 

The day wraps up at our evening fireside. Campers present their drama learned in the morning activity time (if selected), counselors lead crazy camp songs and
put on skits, and we end the evening with praise and worship music followed by a message that focuses on God and His unconditional love love for us.

 

Counselors follow up the fireside message in their cabins and prepare their campers for bed. Time is given for showers, goof off time etc... The cabin group shares a prayer before lights out.
