Adventure Camp 
​Our adventure camp is the combination of our overnight program and the excitement of an outdoor excursion program. Our campers get the opportunity to explore the natural gifts of the Uwharries while growing in their confidence and faith. The week will be filled with backpacking, a paddling trip, on-site climbing activities, and much more!

​Overnight Camp 
​Our overnight camp is our hallmark program. Campers will stay from Sunday afternoon to Friday afternoon, sleeping in cabins, roasting marshmallows, and singing campfire songs. Days are spent swimming and playing in our 2.5 acre lake, hiking on our 543 acre property, doing archery, playing gaga ball, solving team challenges, and so much more! Campers are by gender and age-specific cabins. Cabin groups are paired to form family groups, with whom your camper will spend the week.

Middle and High School campers will have added adventure, with activities that include climbing, ropes courses, and an overnight campout in the woods!
