Take a break from the busyness of everyday life and join us for our annual Youth Winter Blast Overnight!

This overnight getaway is the perfect chance to enjoy camp while making memories with friends, both old and new. Together we’ll play exciting group games, share in meaningful worship, and reconnect with the beauty of nature. And of course, nothing beats hanging out in the crisp winter air while the wood stove keeps things toasty inside. Expect adventure, laughter, and moments of reflection as we spend time together making unforgettable memories through games and dedicated time to grow in faith. And don’t worry, there will be plenty of hot cocoa to go around!

On Saturday evening, we will be traveling offsite in a bus to Palmyra, PA to enjoy some Cosmic Glow Bowling! Whether you’re a seasoned bowler or a master of gutter balls, bowling under the blacklights is a blast everyone. We’ll come prepared with glow sticks and special prizes to have an amazing night.

Join us and experience camp in a whole new season—there’s something for everyone!

Theme: Locked In with God

Our theme for this weekend is Locked In with God! To be “locked in” means to be focused, committed and distraction-free. We will be exploring how our walk with God calls for intentional focus, discipline and commitment. When we limit distractions in our life, we can be more present with Jesus to learn and live our lives to the fullest.
