BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Finally, a summer camp you CAN afford! South Mountain Christian Camp offers six days and five nights of residential summer camp for just $210 per week. In addition, we have a financial assistance program for anyone who cannot pay the full cost. Visit SouthMountainChristianCamp.org for details.

CAMP INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES OFFERED:
Swimming, Waterfront/Aquatics, Team Sports, Adventure, and more.

CAMP LOCATION: We are located on 260 acres of land in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina.

CAMP FACILITIES: We have lodging for up to 180 people, a full-service cafeteria, swimming pool, lake for boating, fishing pond, hiking trails, full-size gym, game room, and multiple indoor and outdoor meeting spaces.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Our Summer Camp programs are designed as one-week residential camps for boys and girls ages 7-15. We offer six different weeks of camp, but it’s the same program, and all ages can come each week. The campers come to camp on Sunday afternoon and stay until Friday evening. They are assigned to a cabin group based on their age. Each cabin group will have 6-8 campers and one summer staff member called a Cabin Director. The Cabin Director stays in the cabin with the campers and provides leadership and supervision for that cabin group throughout the week.

Activities offered at our camp include hiking, swimming, boating, sports, crafts, games, teambuilding activities, rock climbing wall, and more. Additionally, older campers will have the opportunity to do our high ropes course, and younger campers will have a chance to visit a petting farm neighboring the camp.

Safety of our campers is top priority. We have trained lifeguards on duty for all waterfront activities, and all campers are required to wear life jackets while boating. During swim times, campers must remain in the shallow end of the pool unless they can demonstrate swimming proficiency by passing a swim test administered by the lifeguards.

Our Cabin Directors are hired through a diligent screening process. All Cabin Directors must complete a thorough job application and interview. We check several references and run a national criminal background history check on each applicant. Once hired, they undergo extensive, week-long training including certification in First Aid and CPR before they are put in charge of a group of campers.

It is our aim at South Mountain Christian Camp to nurture the faith of each of our campers. We do this through nightly chapel services which use creative teaching methods like skits, object lessons, and activities to teach campers what it means to have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Additionally, each cabin group will have a short Bible devotional time each morning while they are at camp.

At the end of the week, we have a baptism service for any camper who has accepted Christ as Lord and Savior of their lives and wishes to participate in the baptism service here. We never try to talk a camper into being baptized, and we make every effort to check with parents before allowing a camper to do so. However, when we are unable to reach parents by phone, we allow campers to use their best discretion when considering how their parents would feel about them being baptized at camp. For this reason, parents are encouraged to discuss this topic with campers prior to their week of camp so that they can understand and respect the parents' wishes.

CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS OR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE: Financial Assistance program available for any in need.

SUMMER CAMP JOBS:
We are currently looking to fill 16 Cabin Director (typically Camp Counselor) positions. Employment is for 7 weeks. We will have one week of staff training followed by six, one-week camping sessions.

The Cabin Director’s job is to provide leadership and supervision for their cabin group (6-8 campers) and to lead them in games and activities. The Cabin Director position is a ministry opportunity. Cabin Directors build relationships with their campers and provide spiritual guidance for them. They lead cabin devotionals each morning and are available after chapel each night to pray with campers.

All Cabin Directors will have 1 ½ days off each week (Friday evening to Sunday afternoon). During time off, they are free to leave Camp or stay on the grounds if they so choose.

This year, employment will begin on June 18th. The last day of work will be August 8th.
