Explorers gives your child an exhilarating week of whitewater rafting, pool Olympics, a high ropes course, and more! Best of all, at Camp Cedar Cliff, everything we do is designed to point your child to our Creator Jesus Christ. Every camper has time to spend in God’s Word alone, as well as in group devotions and Bible studies. Explorers will help build a spiritual foundation for life for your child.
Friendships abound at Camp Cedar Cliff:
Your kids will build relationships with other kids, counselors, and staff; they’ll spend time in small groups, play together on teams, and have meaningful conversation with counselors who will challenge and encourage them to grow emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Most importantly, they’ll be immersed in what it means to be an authentic Christian and have the most important friendship of all: a relationship with Jesus Christ.
We walk the most important trail:
Your kids will hike a lot of trails at camp this summer, but the most important trail we walk is the one that leads to Christ. Every day our campers learn and apply the Word of God to their daily lives, equipping them to live strong Christian lives in the midst of the pressures of the world.
Our counselors are amazing:
Many of our counselors and staff are former campers who have come back to pass on their great camp experiences and help others grow personally and spiritually. Your child will be in a cabin group of 10 campers led by a college-aged senior counselor and a high-school-aged assistant counselor, with other staff available as well.
We have endless camp activities:
We can’t begin to list all there is to do at Camp Cedar Cliff, but for a start: horseback riding, climbing wall, hiking, sand court volleyball, two ropes courses, swimming, European handball, BBs, basketball, a double zip line, archery, Pool Olympics, and every outdoor activity you can imagine. We also have all-camp activities and great times around the campfire, as well as quiet times for reflection, to be still and know that He is God. Whatever your child’s interests, our activities are sure to engage and challenge.
