Wall-to-wall Action and Adventure

This is WAY better than the Residential Summer Camp you remember! This full-week, overnight Co-Ed Summer Camp is wall-to-wall action and adventure for campers ages 10-13. Our dedicated and passionate camp counselors will guide campers in a variety of activities including our famous island-wide capture the flag game of Rambo, Archery tag, tubing and boating on Lake Wylie, the full Canaan Zipline Canopy Tour, our Giant Swing and Leap of Faith, the Catawba Tower Climbing Wall, arts and crafts, a high adventure course, stand up paddleboarding, team sports, kayaking down the Catawba River, and much more! What is even better is that our passion at Canaan is helping your campers come to know Jesus Christ more through our loving counselors, devotional times, and Vespers with key speakers!

Co-ed Resident Camp is for campers aged 10 through 13. Campers will bunk in our cabins complete with AC and indoor bathroom facilities. Delicious catered meals are provided each day starting Sunday with our kick off dinner, continuing Monday-Friday for breakfast, lunch & dinner, and finishing the week on Friday with the Family Cookout dinner. Drop off will be from 3-4 pm on Sunday, and pick up will be 2:30-3:15 pm followed by our 3:30 closing ceremony. Watersports, Crowders and Paintball are add-ons.

This summer, for resident campers only, we are offering a 3 day add on package that will allow campers to wakeboard and wake surf for 3 individual 4-hour sessions with an instructor throughout their week at camp. They will get around 10 hours on the water with 2 hours of land instruction. This program is limited to 6 people per week so make sure to get your spot! We can’t wait to be on the lake more this summer and using the uniqueness of watersports to allow your camper to grow in personal character development as well as create new friendships that will last a lifetime. $150

Laura – Camp Mom

“To my children, Camp Canaan IS Summer! They look forward each year to coming back to reunite with old friends, to build new relationships and be challenged to step outside their comfort zones. Every day is an adventure! As a parent, I value the outstanding staff that directs them and guides them spiritually. It’s great to see the bonding and growth among the campers and counselors from year to year.”
