A Summer Experience
That Transforms!

For Those Entering 7th-12th grades.

 Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? The world keeps changing its answers, leaving people confused. This summer, we're cutting through the noise. Get ready for a week of nonstop competition, late nights with your cabin, real conversations, and memories you'll be talking about all year. Together, we'll dig into God's Word and discover His answers to the questions that matter most, because who you are is not a mystery to God.

General Information

Registration is Monday from 10:00 to 11:30 AM. Please call the office at 973-293-3522 if you will arrive late. Program starts at 11:30AM. 

The camp week ends at 2:00 PM on Friday afternoon. We ask that your camper be picked up by no later than 2:45 PM that afternoon. Please call the office at 973-293-3522 if you will be late. 

There will be an additional $15.00 late registration fee for all registrations received within 7 days of the start of camp. 

All of the meals and main activities are covered in the price of camp.  However, many campers like to bring some spending money for camp apparel ($10-30), snacks at the snack shack ($2-5), souvenirs at the general store, a cabin picture ($2), and other activities like laser tag ($2/game).  The amount needed differs for every camper, but many find that $50-$70 is enough.

 Sponsor housing is only available to church groups. The sponsor must be sent "officially" by the church to camp for the week.  You will be housed separately from the campers. Sponsors are welcome to eat all of their meals at camp, attend services and watch games and activities, however we want your campers to be fully involved with their cabins and counselor so we will ask you to not eat with your campers or sit with them during the services. 

​Unfortunately we do not have a lot of space to house sponsors and as such, reservations for accommodations are based on a first come first served basis. Thank you for your understanding!  Pricing for sponsors is $245 per person.

We want every camper to get the most out of their week, so all cell phones will be turned in to their counselor or the camp office at the start of the week. A break from screens helps campers stay present, make new friends, and fully enjoy everything camp has to offer. It also keeps phones safe from being lost or stolen.

In the event of an emergency or if you need to get in touch with your child, you can call the camp office and ask to speak with them. We will set up a time that fits both your schedule and the camp schedule for your child to call home. In the event of a medical emergency, your child will also be able to call home. If you would like to send mail to your child, please use the camp address and include your child's name on the envelope.

Yes, we have a registered nurse who stays on the campgrounds for the entirety of each of our Summer youth camps. 

If your camper has any medication, they will turn that in to the nurse with proper dosing instructions during Check-in on Monday. Throughout the week, the nurse will ensure that your camper stays on schedule and takes the correct dosage of their medication. At the end of camp on Friday, your camper will receive their remaining medications back.
