Our offerings include programs for children and youth, ages 7-17, which vary in length from a couple of days to a week long. The Aldersgate experience includes all of the “camp favorites” like swimming, arts and crafts, basketball, volleyball, and hiking. Camp gives children a solid foundation that lasts a lifetime, and equips youth for success by building them up and giving them the gifts of confidence, faith in God, and a healthy self-esteem.
Our faith message encourages youth to grow in their love and knowledge of Jesus Christ. An essential part of the camp experience is spiritual growth – gaining a better understanding of what it means to be a Christian in relationship to God, to others, and the environment. While we are an official extension of The United Methodist Church, many campers come from other churches or have no church affiliation. Adult leaders are sensitive and welcoming to the differing backgrounds of our campers while presenting God’s word and love as shown in Jesus Christ. Programs are designed to be age-appropriate and include music, worship, drama, Bible exploration and memorization, and prayer.
