Junior Camp

Adventure and growth for elementary youth.

Junior Camp is a week-long day and overnight camp for children who have completed 3rd through 5th grade. It’s the perfect next step for kids growing more independent and ready for full-on camp fun. Campers this age are bursting with energy and curiosity – and we channel that into a week of exploration, friendship, and faith-building.

Some things to expect your child’s week

Action-Packed Days

Junior campers dive into all the classic camp activities – from arts & crafts and messy games, to swimming at the beach, sports on our sand volleyball and basketball courts, nature scavenger hunts, and silly theme parties. Every day offers new adventures to keep active kids engaged.

Growing in Faith

We introduce biblical lessons through interactive stories, skits, and songs. Kids learn about values like kindness, honesty, and helping others. Morning programs might include a fun object lesson, and at night campers wind down with favorite camp songs, prayer and a though for the day. Questions and curiosity are encouraged – we love hearing what’s on their minds about God and life!

Friends & Mentors

Campers are placed in groups with kids their age, led by our caring counselors (often college students or church youth volunteers who love working with kids). In this supportive setting, even first-time campers quickly make friends and feel at home. The buddy system and constant supervision ensure everyone is included.

Confidence & Character

For many in Junior Camp, this week is a big step toward independence. Our staff are experts at helping children overcome homesickness, try new things, and gain confidence. Whether it’s attempting the low-ropes course challenge or leading a prayer for the first time, campers discover new strengths in themselves.
