Camp Experience

Dorm Life

In most cases campers are able to room with those they’ve requested on their registration forms although this is not guaranteed. Though campers will not spend much time in their rooms, we still want to make sure you and your camper are satisfied with the rooms and their condition. Your camper’s room will never be locked, so we’ll encourage campers to give any valuable belongings to their counselor for the week.

Homesickness

For many of our campers, this will be their first experience completely away from home! We’ll do our best to keep campers having fun at camp! To ensure that your camper has the best experience they possibly can at camp, we ask that family members and friends do not visit during the week. We do not recommend campers calling home during the week, but in rare cases, may be permitted by our Camp Director. Please do not send a cell phone with your child. Campers with cell phones will be asked to surrender them to their counselor for the remainder of the week.

Camper Safety

Safety first! Activities are a huge component to camp at Beulah Beach, but the safety and well-being of your camper is our first priority. Every part of our program is designed with safety in mind. We do have a Camp Nurse on staff if there are any accidents or sicknesses. The nurse will have all of your camper’s medications and distribute them at different times during the day. If you will be bringing any medications, whether over-the-counter (ie. for seasonal allergies) or prescription, your parent or guardian will need to fill out our “Medication Authorization Form” PRIOR TO your arrival to camp, in order to ensure that all medications are brought under the proper specifications as listed on the form. All of our counselors have also received a list of any medical issues your camper may have!

Lost & Found

All lost and found items will be kept for 2 weeks at which time they will be donated to a charity. Items will be collected at the end of the week/camp and placed in a bin located outside of Lakeshore marked with the date. After 2 weeks, the items will be donated.

Summer Staff

Our counselors are personally interviewed and highly trained to reach each camper at their individual level, to understand them and their needs, and to foster their developmental and spiritual growth. At Beulah Beach, we are passionately committed to providing your camper with the BEST camp experience! Check out all of our Summer Staff here!

Right when you arrive, the counselors run towards you and your know you’re going to have the best week ever!

Ever year I go home and I feel so much stronger and I’ve learned so much! I can’t stand not coming back because I feel like I’ll miss so much with God.
Camper

Jesus is integrated into everything we do! It’s amazing to watch kids get to learn that it’s so much fun to follow Jesus and there is so much freedom and joy when we do!
Maggie, Counselor

I keep coming back because it’s super fun! There are tons of nice people and tons of things to do. And it’s right on the lake!
