Looking for a youth camp full of laughter, good food, new friends and new twists on what being a Christian is all about? Mainland camps run during June, July and August and are available to students entering grades 2-12.

 

What happens on the Mainland?

Mainland activities include big games, an expansive waterfront (complete with speed boats, tubing, skiing, three swimming areas, floating raft and diving board), nature center, arts and crafts building, canteen and game room, but even more importantly, singing and chapel times in the Tabernacle. Each week of camp we invite an age-appropriate guest speaker to come and talk to the campers about their faith. Singing is led by the summer worship director and is always a crazy and moving experience. Covenant Point campers love to sing (and yell)!!

 

 
Each mainland program is unique to the age of camper that comes. Our youngest camps, Hagerman Pathfinders (for students entering grades 2/3/4) offer both partial-week and full-week sessions. Small cabin groups, dedicated counselors and plenty of activity kick-start our youngest campers with a dose of Bible stories and model staff.
   
 

 

Hagerman Explorers (for students entering grades 4/5/6), gives the campers a chance to hang out with the people they love the most while at camp--the staff. Crazy singing times and pumped up creative games and skits catch the campers' attention so the staff can start to talk to them about what really matters--that God loves them. Hagerman Explorers spend time each day in arts and crafts, on the waterfront, out in nature and learning about God through the people around them.
   
Hagerman Wilderness Adventure (for students entering grades 4/5/6) is a special week of camp that caters to the "elementary nature lover". Activities near the water, under the forest canopy and out in the fields wake the best parts of child-like faith. Off-site excursions, hard-core exploration, ropes course activities and overnight camping/canoe trip make this mainland camp totally unique and full of natural awareness.
   
Mainland Voyage (for students entering grades 5/6/7) is the camp for the child who likes choices. Rather than assign indoor and outdoor activities to the cabin groups, we give a whole buch of options and let the campers design their own camp excitement for the week. The speaker for this week knows just how to relate to youth of this age, and does it in a fun, lighthearted but honest way.  
   
Mainland Expedition (for students entering grades 6/7/8/9) is the camp that best combines the excitement of camp games and skits with the true quest for intensive spiritual growth. This week of camp presents a staff ready to not only have a lot of laughs with the campers, but to help campers search for answers to tough questions on faith and Christianity. Extended times for worship, outdoor adventures, faith seminars and skill workshops are only a few reasons to choose this week of camp. The real reason is...well, Jr. High camps are silly and spontaneous and the staff LOVES them!

Mainland Journey (for students entering grades 10/11/12) is the apex camp of Covenant Point. This week focuses on giving campers a chance to experience something they just can't do at home. Whether campers are involved in excursions, "faith in action" workshops, seminars, Braveheart or beach parties, Sr. High campers find God alive and working all around them. Speakers and worship for Sr. High are especially dynamic and filling, while the spiritual nurturing of the staff is personal to each camper. We love to hang out as God's people and fellowship--and we know that Sr. High campers do too!!

Family Camp (for all ages) offers families all the aspects of a great vacation combined with the fullness of living in an inter-generational Christian community for a week. Excursions, daily Bible studies, skill and adventure times for the children mixed with all the greatest features of Covenant Point's facility make this week of family vacation one of the best.
