In Sr. Camp, a one-week overnight camp for 7th-12th graders, campers learn what it means as believers to be called and set apart to contribute and the need for vulnerability. Because of a knowledge of the Gospel and experiencing identity in Christ, campers are beginning to look outside of themselves and answer, “So What?” At this crucial stage in their lives, campers are challenged not to be consumers of the world, but rather contributors to the Kingdom of God. They are also practicing vulnerability with one another, a necessary precursor to Biblical Community. Vulnerability introduces campers to humility, honesty, sober judgment, and authentic relationships that spur one another on to a life following and serving Christ.

Summer camp is a fantastic way for kids to build independence and develop important social skills outside of school and home. It's a unique place where they can grow their confidence, practice vulnerability, and make lasting friendships. Plus, it's a wonderful opportunity for them to connect with God in a new way and grow in their faith. Kids need camp!

Have more questions?
Start your Summer Programs registration, and when you reach the Camper Profile form (or the “Additional Information” form for Family Camps, Horse Camps, and Winter Camps) there will be a question that asks, Would finances keep your camper from being able to attend camp? If so, would you like to apply for a need based scholarship? If you say “yes”, you will be asked four additional questions. See the Summer Camp Guide to Camp for more scholarship information.
No. Each camp will have programming and staff specifically designed for their respective age groups. All registrations go through the same system, regardless of which camp you are registering for (Flint Valley or Frontier Cove).The system will give you the appropriate options based on your child’s upcoming Fall grade level.
We have spaced check-in’s at each camp so you should have time to drop-off each camper. If you have multiple campers drop off your youngest camper first.
