Fall Camp
Freely Give
November 12,2027- November 15th, 2027 | Grades 4-12
From Thursday, November 12 at 5:30 pm until Sunday, November 15 at 3 pm, campers in grades 4–12 will gather for our annual Fall Youth Retreat. This year’s theme, Freely Give, focuses on discovering the joy of Christmas beyond the presents under the tree.
Our Grades 4–6 and Jr/Sr High campers will be at camp together for the weekend, sharing meals, games, singing, crafts, and Christmas decorating! Each age group will have its own morning program and stay in separate cabins, but we'll still have plenty of time to celebrate the Christmas season together and catch up with friends!
