Activities for the week include group games, nature, crafts, music and singing, campfire vespers, swimming, low-ropes group challenges, creek-play, Home-in-the-Woods camping skills, hiking the camp trails and a singing hike to Horseshoe Bend, archery, orienteering and geocaching, Morning Watch, Bible study, nightly worship around the campfire, polar bear swims, night activities, special evening programs and a day on the climbing wall and high ropes course, including the Zip Line and the Flying Squirrel! Your week also includes a day with an adventure outing: River Tubing.  On Tuesday or Wednesday, your family unit will have a cookout in your Home-in-the-Woods and have one or more overnight camp-outs. Learn more about Why, How, and What we do during Summer Camps including a complete activities list.  Resident Camp is a great week of fun and adventure; exploring your extraordinary faith journey TOGETHER! Be here for an awesome week!  

River Tubing:
It’s our best way to beat the summer heat! Your week includes a fun and relaxing morning of river tubing on the beautiful and historic James River, just 6 miles from Camp Bethel. Let the river do the work as we ride the gentle current through gorgeous scenery over riffles and mini-rapids while keeping cool splashing, swimming and playing. Get creative with your float style or team up with your counselors and new friends to build an ultimate tube-blob-flotilla! Tubes, PFDs and transport provided by our friends at Twin River Outfitters, with counselor leadership provided by Camp Bethel.  Rated easy.

​Subsidized Fee (discounted cost) = $445; Supporters Fee (actual cost) = $495;  Sustainers Fee (cost + $50 gift) = $545.

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING:
"Our son and daughter have been coming to Camp Bethel since they were 5 years old--they are now 13 and 14 years old. We have found that your camp is one of the few that our kids continue to enjoy even as they are older. Other camps (sometimes a lot more expensive) are nice but for some reason the magic of Camp Bethel remains. We also really respect the way that your camp incorporates God and Bible study but in such a way that it is still cool--a rarity these days to find a place where kids can be kids and learn to love God and care for one another in God's creation. Thanks so much for the awesome experience for our kids and the ongoing magic that is Camp Bethel. Thanks, Gina and Chris Engel"
