We are excited to host a weekend of fellowship, fun, thanksgiving and praise. This weekend is geared towards teens ages 13-18. Our goal is to pack a weekend full of worship and praise to prepare students for another school year and also just life.

Camp Joy welcomes youth groups and their leaders to attend as well! If a youth group leader is not present, we will have staff on site. All youth group leaders will attend at no charge.
