YD camp takes place in a unique setting where young people ages 12–17 are encouraged to gain new skills in God’s great outdoors while strengthening their walk with the Lord.
No matter which week campers attend, they can expect to enjoy YD’s famous “Friendship Feast,” memorable music, and exciting outreach opportunities. Campers will learn new methods of getting into the Word for themselves, and find themselves growing in ways they may not have expected—all while making friends for life and eternity.
Campers will also enjoy a wide range of class options such as wilderness survival, mission pilot ground school, search & rescue, literature evangelism, fire building, canoeing, child evangelism, health evangelism, choir, orchestra and much more. Classes may be selected approximately 4–6 weeks before camp begins.
Week 1: July 15–22, 2018
Week 2: July 22–29, 2018

If you know of someone that may be able to serve, please contact the YD office or have them download a staff volunteer application online.

Campers needing to place approved calls (i.e. family emergency), may do so in the camp office under the guidance of their counselor. Parents are encouraged to send messages to their children via mail, E-mail, or fax.
