One of our flagship youth opportunities, our Youth Blast programs focus on building community with each other here at Gretna Glen before taking on an adventure off site. Youth Blast campers spend their week eating meals together in the Dining Hall, learning new skills at program activities, and playing night games, and feeling the good vibes of Christian camp community as one body.
Appalachian Adventure campers will spend a night offsite camping along the Appalachian trail after a fun day of hiking and climbing at Shaffer’s Rock area in Michaux State Forest. This group will get to make the most of their fun on “the A.T.” while practicing Leave No Trace Ethics and bringing some Gretna Glen culture to the trail.
All Gretna Glen children and youth campers will have the opportunity to share in the camp experience filled with singing, Bible Discovery, worship, crafts, nature, swimming, boating, fishing, campfires, hiking, archery, sports, games, and much more. Each program is designed specifically to be age-appropriate, and specialized staff are trained to ensure a high-quality and well-structured program.
Our goal for all overnight campers is to create an environment where they can THRIVE:
This is considered a “MAINSITE” program with housing in our cabins. Our cabins consist of bunk beds, and a changing area, and they utilize a modern Shower-house which was built new in 2018.
Gretna Glen is accredited by the American Camp Association. To earn accreditation, Gretna Glen complies with more than 300 health, safety and program quality standards. This accreditation is vital to the safety of our campers and guests while holding us to a high standard of excellence.
