Winter Camp, Wisconsin
Winter Camp - Montello, WI
Winter Camp provides a wonderfully unique experience for campers. Experience the beauty of riding horseback through the snowy woods. Perhaps you’ve never played broomball—it’s like hockey without skates. You’ll get to ice skate and fly down a snow-covered hill on tubes.
You’ll also enjoy some traditional camp activities like volleyball, basketball and dance class. We also play games like football and speedaway out in the snow-covered field. There are team-building and challenge activities.
In the evening, enjoy campfire chats and time with friends. We also have the much-anticipated camp dance on the last night of camp.
For a real challenge, some campers will be able to go on our “Winter Camping Challenge.” You’ll spend the night camping out in the snowy Wisconsin woods. Of course, activities may vary some, based on the weather conditions.
In addition to fun, you’ll get to spend time with old friends and meet many new ones. It’s wonderful to spend time with youth of the same faith. Together you’ll learn more about God’s way and His amazing plan for you. Morning Compass Checks and Christian Living classes will help you develop spiritually.
Campers develop a special bond at Winter Camp. Hope to see you there. I know you’ll enjoy the experience.
