Camp will be from July 22nd-25th and located at Table Rock Wesleyan Camp and Retreat Center, 125 Bethany Cove Dr, Pickens, SC 29671. Each day the students will participate in worship sessions, free groups, district wars, group meals, themed after-parties, and more. Your student will stay with their peers and leaders. Upon arrival we will go over the rules and expect them to follow them to the best of their abilities. Your student will have a leader with them to be available and answer questions. For the entire camp we will have a safety team present alongside our staff.

Camp Missions Opportunity
We’re excited to let you know that this year at camp, students will have the chance to participate in a missions offering through our partner World Help. As a camp, we’re collectively working to sponsor one child for an entire year!
The offering will take place on the last day of camp, and students are encouraged to pre-give online or bring cash to contribute.
Here’s how to give:
* Pre-give online by clicking below OR send your student with cash to give during the final day offering*
This is a powerful way for students to see how their generosity can make a real difference in the life of a child across the world.
Thank you for trusting us with your student. We truly believe this week will be fun, powerful, and life-changing—and we’re honored to be part of it.

ARE CELL PHONES allowed?
No cell phones are allowed at camp. We want Summer Camp to be a distraction-free week for students, and few things distract students as much as their phones. Over the years, we’ve found that taking students out of their regular routine opens them up to hear from Jesus in ways they haven’t before.
Our leaders will have cell phones, so your student will have access to a phone if they need to reach you.
WHAT ARE THE CAMP RULES?
If we have an issue with your student breaking the rules or any other behavioral issues, you will be contacted and will need to come pick up your student. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis depending on the rules that are broken.
- Respect the people, respect the place
- No romantic displays of affection
- Be on time for all services and activities

PRAY
WITH
US
We are expectant for all God is going to do through Summer Camp 2025 and we want you to pray with us together as a church.
Pray for the students who will be going to camp. For all 6th through 12th grade students… ask that God will meet every student right where they are. Pray for the students you may know and the students you don’t. Ask that God eliminates any hesitation in them as they think about signing up for any experience like this.
Pray for parents. It’s a big deal to send your kid to summer camp! Ask for God to be with them as they entrust their student to this wonderful adventure and experience.
Pray for our leaders and staff. As they plan and execute Summer Camp ask for God to give them wisdom and energy beyond their own ability. Pray for every leader as they invest in students and guide them through meaningful group discussions.
Pray for the experiences and sessions. There will be multiple sessions and experiences where students can encounter Jesus. Ask for smooth, life-giving, and impactful experiences to be created with moments of prayer, teaching, praise, and worship. Pray for the worship leaders, preachers, and hosts to be equipped by Holy Spirit to share the gospel and lead the students well.
Pray for the groups. In groups is where we see the most breakthrough. Pray for students to trust each other and in return to be trustworthy. Ask for the groups to be a safe place for leaders to partner with Holy Spirit as they guide discussion.
Pray for the fun. We see students connect with each other through team games, competition, and fun. These connections create a close bond between students, leaders, and more. Ask for God to be present in the fun and for all we do to be used for His glory. We don’t take ourselves too seriously… but we take Jesus very seriously.
