This is the ULTIMATE camp if you’re a 6th, 7th, or 8th grader. Spend each morning in a specialty activity and after lunch, we’ve got all afternoon to swim in the pool, climb the wall, ride the giant swing, go tubing or boating, and much more! Bible study and amazing worship and campfires round out the day.

This week is loaded with opportunities to serve through projects like painting, minor home repair, yard work, or building handicap ramps. We’ll break into teams and head out into the local community where there is some real need every day! There may be other needs at local food banks or assisted living centers. When the work is finished for the day, we’ll be back at West River with plenty of time to hang with friends, have fun on the water, or swim at the pool. We’ll wrap up the day after dinner with some great games and worship with great music.

Creation is full of things to discover - and Discovery Camp gives you a chance to explore and discover. You might discover a part of God’s creation that you hadn’t noticed before as you hike the Marsh Trail, watch the turtles at the pond, paddle a canoe or ride the motorboat down the river. You might discover courage you never knew you had as you climb the high wall or swing from 50’ up on the Giant Swing. But most of all, you’ll discover Jesus’ words and actions are relevant to our lives today as you study, sing, and worship.
