There were ZERO reported cases of COVID-19 at Summer Camp at Camp Bethel in 2021. Simply put, the precautions we put in place worked. As summer 2022 draws closer and as conditions change in Virginia, we will publish any updated information and adapted plans here. 

We are preparing for safe and fun 2022 Summer Camps with multiple health and safety adaptations. For details and Camp Bethel's health-and-safety plan, visit our COVID-19 page.  ​We will continue to update this page as we receive guidance and information from the CDC and the VDH.
​

Parent-Child Day Camp:  We are excited to offer a Parent-Child Overnight-and-Day Camp in 2022 with limited overnight accommodations (available on a first-come, first-serve basis).

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"
