Camp Whitman on Seneca Lake
Why Church Camp?
What choices does your child have this summer?
Soccer camp and swim camp will help in school activities. Scout camp and 4H camp are fun, and may be less expensive.
So… Why church camp?
Simply because it is your child’s best chance to experience personally a loving, caring Christ-centered community. It is specifically designed to challenge your child to grow—spiritually, emotionally and physically—from third, fourth and fifth grade camps to the senior high Counselors In Training camp.
The Christian camp experience says to a child, “God loves you, counselors love you, your fellow campers love you, and it’s okay to love yourself.” This love builds from year to year. The hesitant child grows into a confident teenager, who becomes a giving, caring young adult. This young adult considers the future—wondering what the church means personally—then remembers those years of camp, from cabins to canoes and trails, and says, “Yes. This is the community where I belong!”
This scenario is not fiction! It has happened hundreds of times over the years, and it can happen again to your child. A week at Camp Whitman on Seneca Lake with the Presbyteries of Geneva and Genesee Valley camp programs can be the start of a lifetime of benefits.
