Senior High Camp combines the camping activities we all know and love with new experiences and challenges. In this five-day session campers can leave the pressures of high school behind, connect to friends new and old, and grow and revitalize a personal relationship with God. For campers who have completed grades 9-11. Session options include horseback riding, archery, and an offsite float trip!
Jr. High and Sr. High camps are held at the same time, but have separate program staff, counselors and lodging. They will do some activities and meals together.
Add-On Options
Horseback Trail Ride: The horseback trail ride add-on offers an immersive experience where campers learn basic horsemanship skills and enjoy a guided ride through natural surroundings. The program provides a unique opportunity for campers to connect with patient, friendly “camp horses,” build confidence, and create lasting memories in an outdoor, screen-free environment.
Archery: The archery add-on provides campers with a chance to learn the fundamentals of target archery in a safe, controlled environment. The program begins with a strong emphasis on safety rules, range etiquette, and proper handling of equipment. Participants use beginner-friendly equipment like recurve bows, various arrow types (often fiberglass or aluminum with target points), arm guards, and finger tabs, provided by the camp. Archery is an excellent activity for building focus, patience, discipline, and self-confidence as campers see tangible improvement in their skills over the session.
Canoe Trip: An off-site 2–3-hour river float for summer camp is a low-intensity, relaxing water adventure designed for pure recreation and cooling off. Unlike technical canoeing, these trips focus on leisure as campers drift downstream in inflatable rafts or tubes. The quiet pace allows for easy spotting of local fauna, such as bald eagles, turtles, and herons. The gentle movement of the water provides a “digital detox” and mental reset from the busy camp schedule. Floating close together encourages constant conversation and storytelling without the distraction of navigation tasks. Campers should wear quick-drying swimwear, secure water sandals (no flip-flops), and a hat.
