Camp Heritage

Pennsylvania

Camp Heritage (owned by the BSA, Laurel Highlands Council) will host our 2024 program. Heritage opened in 1980; and the regional church camp programs there began in 1996. This will be our Twenty seventh year of Camp Heritage.

The Camp Heritage schedule (middle-August) is ideal for home-schooled students, since they’re able to be more flexible in start-up dates for the school year. It’s a great way to finish out your summer!

The older campers (age 15-18) will spend part of the day white water rafting on the lower Youghiogheny River.

Campers will face several class three and four rapids. The younger campers will enjoy our annual beach party on the shores of Lake Courage.

Christian Living class kicks off each day’s activities.

Camper Arrival
Campers should arrive August 11, 2024 between 1 and 2 pm.

Staff arrival
Staff should arrive for training at Sabbath Services in Fairchance, PA
