CAMP DESCRIPTIONS

RESIDENT CAMPS

YoliJwa resident campers share in an experience filled with activities, singing, Bible Study, worship, crafts, nature, swimming, campfires, special programs and much more, all in a Christian environment.  Campers reside in dorm rooms along with 5-8 other campers.  Each room is supervised by a loving and caring staff person with the goal of befriending each camper and impacting his or her life forever.  Each week of camp is led by a hand chosen set of co-directors who in turn recruit Bible Teachers, Vesper Leaders, Team Leaders and Room Counselors.  These staff along with the Summer-long Camp Staff are committed to making each week of camp the best it can possibly be.
