Counselors
For each camp session we have thirty-six to forty young people of good character and active in their church. Our counselors are almost all former campers. They must be willing to live and teach in agreement with our statement of faith.
The camper/counselor ratio is no more than 6 to 1.
Day Camp Registration
Camp brochures are mailed the third week of February. Applications for camp are only accepted by mail or in person as they arrive at camp. Due to limited space, early registration is necessary. No registering or reservations are taken by phone.
A registration form and camp brochure will be available on the Registration page after former campers have received their applications in the mail.
