Adventure Camp is a rustic outdoor adventure program that uses the challenges of outdoor living, combined with the unique activities, to teach important life lessons and build character into each camper. With only 12 campers a week and four staff members, the ratio of camper-to-staff is low. Although the weekly schedule is full of high octane adventure, and sometimes strenuous, the joy and satisfaction of completing the challenge is very rewarding. Daily Bible lessons are taught and modeled by the Adventure Camp staff each day no matter whether the group is on the trail, the river, or climbing a mountain.
