CAMP FAQs

Kid Week campers are ages 8-12.

Teen Week campers are ages 13-17

Camp registration is $50 per camper for one week-long session. This cost includes a light breakfast, lunch, and snack each day, water bottle, t-shirt, and camper gift. 

Throughout the day, campers participate in a wide range of activities including: adventure ropes course, zipline, basketball, archery, fishing, canoeing, mountain biking, sports, gardening and so much more! Each camper will also participate in one art class each morning. Classes vary from year to year but have included: drama, art, painting, spoken word, ukulele, rhythm, dance, and choir.

Campers are separated into family groups for the week. Each family group is gender-specific and will consist of other campers around the same age. A counselor and counselor-in-training will lead each family group. Family groups compete for points each day by memorizing Bible verses, creating group cheers, and learning the camp rap. Family groups also discuss how to grow closer to God.

​The entire camp comes together each morning and afternoon. Campers are able to enjoy skits, hear from Christian speakers, learn from the Word of God, and get hyped up for Jesus.

Camp is Monday-Friday from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm. The front gate will open promptly at 9:00 am for drop-off and will open promptly at 5:30 pm for pick-up. Shiloh Camp does not offer before or aftercare or transportation to and from camp.

Campers MUST attend camp on Monday or they will forfeit their camp reservation, unless you have pre-approval from a Shiloh staff member. To request pre-approval, please email info@shilohcamp.org. 

Any late drop-off or early pick-up times MUST be pre-approved by the Shiloh staff team. Please email info@shilohcamp.org with your specific situation.

​Late Drop-Off

If your camper is late to camp, bring them to the Shiloh office to sign-in. Office staff will direct the camper to their family group based on the schedule.

Early Pick-Up

In order to accommodate the camp schedule, Shiloh Adventures requests that all early pickups happen before 3:30 pm. At 3:30 pm, campers enter free time, which makes finding a specific camper difficult. The front gate will close at 3:30 pm until dismissal at 5:30 pm.

Parents or an authorized pick-up person must come to the Shiloh office to sign-out their camper. Office staff will assist in finding the camper.
