Are you a camper for life? Then Classic might be the week for you. We will continue to offer all the favorites; Challenge Island, worship, Bible study, and great games, but it’s different too. Investing in each other, we’ll grow an authentic, small group community, seeking Christ in the midst of our relationships. It’s a different pace and a different experience, all in the place you know and love.
H2: June 17-22

Take a radical departure from everyday life and join the Pack & Paddle crew. A staple now in our program, experienced guides take us up north to backpack and canoe portions of the Manistee National Forest and River. This trip engages beginner to experienced backpackers and seamlessly weaves worship and relationship throughout the hiking, paddling, and camping.
H8: July 29-August 2
10th grade to college freshman
The name has multiple meanings: our base camp for this week will actually be down the road a couple miles from GENEVA, in a beautiful, wooded, rustic setting. The name also points to preparation for future camp roles. Over the course of this week we will spend time at GENEVA each day learning about support staff roles through participation in designing and leading games for younger campers, assisting maintenance staff with projects, being part of the store operations, and plugging into arts and crafts. Each evening we’ll return to our off-site base and invest in our community as we worship, dig into scripture, play, and looking forward to the next day’s projects back at GENEVA.
H4: July 1-4
7th-12th grades
This day camp program is uniquely designed for middle and high school male campers with Asperger’s Syndrome or High-functioning Autism. Under the care of experienced staff, campers focus on social skills, physical activity, and spiritual growth, alongside others on the spectrum. At the end of the week there is an optional Wednesday overnight experience for CONNECT campers.
Email us for more information to determine if this session is a good fit for your son and for instructions on how to register.
