Explorers
completed grades 7-9

A community experience in a rustic setting. Explorers stay in covered wagons and prepare seven of their meals over an open fire. In addition to the daily activities of Bible Study, worship, games, hiking, crafts and campfires, Explorers take an afternoon canoe trip and camp out at a local campground. Designed to be a small community, campers are not assigned to a specific counselor, however a 1 counselor:8 camper ratio is maintained.

Outpost
completed grades 8 & 9

Outpost is the most rustic of the on-site programs. Ten campers and two staff members set up their own tent camp site on the property, creating their own camp community. All meals are packed out and prepared by the group. This program has a more relaxed schedule with the group determining daily activities. In addition to meals, worship and Bible Study, possible activities include hiking, creek splashing, service work, games and campfires. This week provides a great opportunity to explore faith questions more in-depth and grow as a community.
