Welcome!
Dear Campers and Families,
I believe in camp! I believe that camp is a wonderful and powerful place
for children to grow in many ways! I believe that a camper’s self-esteem,
self-confidence, sense of awe and wonder, leadership development, and
character are developed at camp. Most importantly, I believe that people
of all ages experience Christ, Creation, and Community at our Dakotas-
Minnesota area camps in impactful ways that change their hearts and
lives. My life was changed by time spent at camp, perhaps yours was too.
Our dedicated team of professional staff is preparing for an exciting
summer; and our most important goal is that campers of all ages are
provided a safe place to grow and learn. Sending your children to a fun-
filled, faith-focused, experience at summer camp is an investment in their
lives. Campers will learn new skills, make new friends, live in Christian
community, spend time in nature, experience ways to grow in their
relationship with God, and have fun doing it in a carefully supervised
environment.
You may be considering a first-time camping experience. Perhaps you are
