Co-ed Camp

Overnight Summer Camp, Ages 10-13

A group of campers, all wearing helmets and harnesses, stand closely together on a wooden platform. They are ready for a zipline canopy tour adventure at an overnight summer camp, surrounded by lush green foliage. Everyone is smiling and looking at the camera.

Co-ed Camp activates all 100 acres of our incredible island oasis! Every day, campers are up and at ’em doing everything under the sun – high ropes course, ziplining, kayaking, tubing, archery tag, arts and crafts, team sports – the fun does not stop! In the evening, campers enjoy restorative time studying the Bible and attend evening devotions with key speakers.
