The Objectives of our Camp and Conference Program
 The
Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Georgia believes that camp
and conference provide an opportunity for children, youth, and adults
to step away from their day-to-day routines and focus more intensely
on their relationship with God, to experience Christian community, and
to practice living out their spiritual values in a supportive atmosphere.
Camp Recreation Opportunities
There are numerous recreation possibilities
at Camp: volleyball, soccer, basketball,
football, kickball, softball, non-competitive games, badminton, croquet,
ping pong, paddle boating, canoeing, fishing, swimming, hiking, crafts,
table games. No one gets bored with so many opportunities to make new
friends and share in Christian community.
