Mission

To build a positive camp environment that intentionally supports the spiritual, relational and physical needs of our campers and staff.

Goals

2. 
   

Relational

1. To encourage healthy relationships and be accepting of others. To help campers develop personal confidence in their ability to learn new skills.  To encourage and invite campers to make positive choices about their lifestyle and future, by presenting them with character-building lessons and mentoring them in making positive choices.
   

Physical

1. To provide fun-filled, challenging recreational opportunities for children and youth where skills are learned in a systematic and uplifting manner.To strive for a safe environment, where risk is minimized.
