Camp ECCO offers a variety of programmed Christian camping opportunities during the summer months for youth in kindergarten all the way up to college-aged young adults.
Campers spend the week in dorm-style housing, living and learning alongside of other campers as well as our counseling staff. Every day is packed full with games and activities such as Gaga Ball, water wars, swimming, fishing, water trampolining, and canoeing in our lake. Plenty of time is also allotted for crafts and free time to hang out with new and old friends. Twice a day we hold chapel - a safe environment where everyone at the camp can learn about what Scripture says and ask difficult questions about life and faith.

When we’re together there’s no need to impress.
You are free to be you. Come as you are...
This is Us.

Here's a little bit of what you can expect when you come to one of our Camp ECCO summer camps or retreats...
- We are a group of people seeking to be more like Jesus through the messy, day-by-day process it is to know Him. We are broken, imperfect people united by our God and we aim to love on all people in their brokenness. We persevere together through hard times knowing that God is holding us and bringing us to the other side.
- When we’re together there’s no need to impress. You are free to be you. Come as you are---bring snacks.
- We love to laugh. We love to joke. We love to tell stories. We love to build lasting memories. And we love remembering that we are all family and here to look after one another.
- We come expecting that by being together, being vulnerable in our conversations, and loving each other that we will be led into a first-hand experience with Jesus Christ.
- By playing games, worshipping, and learning together away from the distractions of the world we are empowered to walk back into the world living transformed and Christ-filled lives.
