Overview

Bridge Camp is a specialty program designed to help transition campers from Day Camp to Overnight! These unique camps begin as a Day Camp on Monday and Tuesday, then transition to an Overnight Camp from Wednesday to Friday. A Bridge Camp week involves:

  • Monday and Tuesday: regular drop off and regular pick up (day camp schedule)
  • Wednesday: regular drop off, sleepover Wednesday and Thursday night!
  • Friday: Pick up at 4:45pm with optional parent slideshow at 5:00pm.

Bridge Camp is a great way to try out sleeping over at camp, but not for a full week. Bridge campers also get to experience the high ropes course throughout their week.

Faith Formation

Campers are introduced to faith in a new and exciting fashion. We recognize that children come from a variety of backgrounds and we strive to provide them with a safe environment to learn about faith. Children participate in daily sessions where they sing worship music, led by a worship band. They also watch an age-appropriate drama that runs the span of the week. After session, children take part in small group discussions and activities where they are encouraged to ask questions and recap what took place during the daily drama. Each day ends with vespers. During this time, campers are led in more worship and participate in skits about faith.
