Dorm Life and Spiritual Activities
Dorms are grouped by age range, providing campers with the chance to form lasting friendships with peers who share a similar desire to grow in their faith. Each unit is guided by counselors who serve to guide the dorm in a positive direction, helping the campers develop meaningful relationships inside and outside of the dorm. Counselors create an atmosphere of fun and teamwork while prioritizing spiritual development through daily activities such as sports, team-building, Christian living sessions, campfires, dorm discussions, dances, and more.
The week will culminate in a restful Sabbath, a semi-formal banquet, and an evening dance. Campers will sleep in bunk beds with mattresses and will need to bring their own bedding (sheets/blanket or sleeping bag), as well as their own pillow and towels.
