| Core Values |
| • |
Affirming, caring and accepting all campers - The primary lasting impression that we want each camper to experience is that they are uniquely loved and valued by God and by our staff. We invite children/youth and adults from different backgrounds, different socio-economic classes and different mental or physical abilities. We believe that when people feel valued they are more ready to hear about God's love and acceptance for them. |
|
| • |
Impacting youth with God's truths - Youth will hear the truths from God's Word but a main goal will be to show the students these truths through our lifestyle. A key verse that summarizes our goals for the campers is Luke 2:52: "And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and men." We hope that campers will grow in wisdom about the environment and themselves. In stature they will be challenged to respect and care for their bodies. They will also be encouraged to know God personally and develop positive relationships with others. |

| • |
Investing in our leaders for their continued effectiveness - We feel that quality leaders are the key to an effective program. We commit to encouragement and ongoing training in the areas of spiritual growth, skill development and effective communication. |
|
| • |
Providing consistent, reliable programming and Christ centered service to campers and community. - We are committed to age appropriate programming with quality content in a spiritual context. We are committed to be involved with the community and encourage their involvement in the camp. The Christ centered service to both campers and community will be provided with excellence as we endeavor to honor God in all that we do. |
|
| • |
Having lots of Fun! - If the campers enjoy their time they will recall what they've learned and will be more apt to return with friends. |
