Objectives
We desire to be an extension of the ministry of the Yarmouth Association of Baptist Churches and of the Convention of Atlantic Baptist Churches, a summer camp ministry focussing on children and youth, and a camp and conference ministry for all ages (Fall through Spring).
We want to serve all evangelical churches in Yarmouth County and surrounding areas. We rely on them to provide staff, volunteer, financial and prayer support. We welcome people of all ages, races, creeds and backgrounds to attend our camp programs and expect that they act in accordance with biblical standards.
Our goal is for each person to have a life-changing and memorable experience while encountering Jesus Christ and for each staff and board member to grow closer to Christ through serving Him in unity. We want to participate in advancing the Kingdom of God.
