How many campers come to a session?
If we are full, we will have 160 campers per session.

How many campers are there in each cabin?
There are up to, but not more than, 10 campers and two leaders in each cabin

What is the counselor ratio?
At least one counselor for every 5 campers.

Where do we get our staff?
Our staff are either older high school students, juniors or seniors, or college students. By far the largest number of our staff come through word of mouth referrals from campers and other staff. We also recruit at area Christian colleges and through our camp mailing list.

Is there a nurse?
Good question. We will always try to have a nurse on the premises. We do have a doctor less than 5 miles away who sees our campers. Rockdale county emergency hospital is also close by.

Will my child be able to be with his friend?
Yes, but make sure you indicate that on the registration form. Also, when you come on Sunday, friends should sign up for the same activity schedule also.

What activities do we have?
The camp day is divided into four activity periods, each lasting 1½ hours long. The activities include: Wide World of Sports (such as soccer, volleyball, archery and other team/field games), Horseback Riding (we have 30 horses and we try to ride each period, weather permitting), Water Sports (swimming in the pool, paddleboating, canoeing, fishing), Arts and Crafts (a project to make and take home), and much more.

Besides activities, what else do campers do?
Each morning, after breakfast, there is a Bible study in the cabin. We then have two activity periods, then lunch, a 45 minute rest period, then two more activity periods, then supper. Each day ends with a Vesper service of camp singing, Bible songs and a short message from the staff. Then it's back to the cabins to prepare for bed.
