United Youth Camps


UYC 2027 Camp Directors’ Meetings Held

This week at the home office, directors for each of the teen and preteen camps met to discuss next year’s program. Each year, it’s essential to plan a budget, theme and other details so camp can run smoothly.

Discussions included what the daily themes will be, how to handle unexpected challenges and feedback provided through last year’s survey.

Plans are in place to produce the annual camp magazine and video, which will be ready to view as registration time approaches. We hope you’ll consider joining us as a camper or on staff at one of our 2027 United Youth Camps!
