Campers will have opportunities to make new friends and learn more about Jesus through daily Bible studies. Beginning with Explorers, all sessions include classics like archery, canoeing, and swimming.
Starting with Navigators, campers will have the opportunity to participate in hatchet throwing, the low ropes challenge course, and an introductory orienteering course. Adventurers do all that plus extended canoeing/kayaking adventures on East Battle Lake.
