Description
This is our 20th session of Camp Gilgal! Campers participate in swimming, horseback riding, Tabernacle (Bible lessons), field trips, Hebrew (ranging from those who don’t know the alphabet at all to those who can speak it), campfires, sports, marching in an old-fashioned Fourth of July parade in the historic gold mining town of Columbia, crafts, fun games, and some special surprises. We have been staying at the facilities for 18 years and they are excellent, including cabins (male and female), dining room/meeting area, recreation area and a swimming pool. We also have a high staff to camper ratio which provides a safe and nurturing environment. Transportation is available from Los Angeles for those in Southern California, Las Vegas, Arizona and other locations.
Teen camp was established in 1994 after our junior campers began to panic about being too old to attend Camp Gilgal. They signed and presented a petition, so we started a new camp for them. It’s an exciting week full of activities that include swimming, boating, an adventure in Yosemite National Park, Tabernacle (Bible lessons), a ropes course, paintball, wall climbing, campfires, fun games and more. Many of our campers have developed leadership skills through the opportunities that are made available to them there. Transportation is available from Los Angeles.
Our campers wanted to keep going after outgrowing teen camp, so in 1999 we began adventure camp. This year’s adventure will be spent house boating on beautiful Lake Shasta, and is a great chance to spend time with our amazing God in worship, prayer, and Bible lessons geared toward campers. We’ll have an incredible amount of fun on the lake and cook our own meals (each of the house boats has a kitchen and a barbeque). Part of the adventure is deciding what we want to do on the way to and from Lake Shasta, and on the lake itself! Transportation is available from Los Angeles.
During these two weeks, veteran and new campers alike have some amazing fun and learn about Y'shua. They go swimming, boating, learn Hebrew (ranging from beginner to just beyond post-beginner), go on field trips, learn about the Bible in Tabernacle time, join in the annual "surprise" water fight, participate in the "Oylimpics," and much, much more. (This summer we have a special 4th of July celebration to look forward to!) Jump in and join us for our 13th summer in the Midwest!
