Adventure. Community. Growth. Summer Camps for all ages!
THE ARK offers a wide variety of summer camp options to help students develop and deepen their walk with Christ. While each camp session has a slightly different daily schedule, all camps have daily Bible teaching times, worship, water activities, missions, outdoor games, and more! Please note, unless marked "Day Camp" all camps are overnight sessions. Jungle Hut and Thai Hut camp sessions sleep in their very own unique rustic villages and cook many meals over a campfire. Most other overnight camp sessions sleep in the block cabins around the pond and eat meals in the Conference Center (main building). Most camp sessions sleep in twin bunkbeds, with the exception of Thai Hut campers who sleep in hammocks. Here's a look at this summer's schedule:
