High schoolers, experience all that camp has to offer, get away from the pressure of life, and make lifelong friends at High School Camp. This a week meant to help campers find belonging and peace in Christ. Campers will have the chance to participate in all our challenge course activities (high ropes, zipline, giant swing, climbing tower), camp games, and grow closer to the Lord. It will be so much fun!
This is a main camp session, so all campers will be staying in our air controlled cabins on base camp.
Camp Specific Info
Theme:
You don’t choose the weather, but you choose WHO you trust in it!
All throughout Scripture, rain appears in moments filled with fear, uncertainty, and waiting, yet God often uses those very storms to bring something greater. This week we’ll discover what it means to rely on Jesus when the clouds roll in and experience the power of the Spirit poured out like rain. And by the end of the week, we won’t just be watching the forecast, we’ll be praying with bold faith, “Lord, bring the rain.”

THEME NIGHTS
Each night of camp Monday-Friday we will have a theme night. We encourage campers and adults to dress up for the theme for dinner and the game after will relate to the theme!
