Summer Camps
We offer camp sessions available throughout the summer that accommodate ages ranging from kindergarten through high school. Each camp is designed to provide an opportunity for kids to experience who Jesus is and to be influenced by Him toward making a life-changing decision.
WHY CAMP?
TRANSFORMED LIVES
At camp, young people have the mental room to consider some of the most important issues of life. This break from the craziness of their regular routine allows campers to think about their future, to evaluate unhealthy patterns, and to discover the truth that God loves them and has an amazing plan for their lives.
ADULT MENTORS
According to researchers, kids spend on average less than 40 minutes in meaningful conversation with their parents each week. At camp, caring adults, counselors and mentors come alongside campers, helping them think through decisions and experiences in a way that will prepare them for their future. Many campers point back to a positive role model they met at camp as one who helped shape the direction of their lives.
NATURE AND ADVENTURE
CCCA member camps are set in some of the most beautiful spots on the continent.
Campers explore nature, participate in new adventures and test their limits in a healthy environment surrounded by the grandeur of God’s creation.
LIFELONG FRIENDSHIPS
Good friends who exert positive peer pressure can make all the difference in a kid’s life. Friendships with caring adults and other campers, forged through shared experience and the compressed time at camp, can last a lifetime and provide a connection that helps young people navigate the challenges of life.
TEMPORARY COMMUNITY
In a setting separate from their daily routine, with an opportunity to shed the expectations and pressures of others, campers are freed up to truly be themselves, to live above artificial limitations and blossom into who they were created to be.
