A “One Day” Summer Camp Experience

In light of the uncertainty of COVID-19, the speed of the vaccine being readily available and other variables that are constantly changing, we have made the decision to move forward with a “One Day” Youth Camp experience this summer on the Virginia Church of God Campground. This will be a one day event packed full of all things youth camp. After much discussion, prayer and thought we feel like this is the best option for 2021. Obviously, the safety and well-being of our students and their families are of utmost importance. However, we feel that it will be very beneficial for our kids to have the opportunity to gather together for worship and connection.

We are sensitive to the fact that this will present some travel challenges to those who live on the opposite end of the state. It's our hope that parents and leaders will do the very best they can to get students to Roanoke. We believe that these "One Day" Camp experiences are going to be life changing and a breath of fresh air for our kids. We are looking forward to hosting all the wonderful young people from Virginia on the grounds this summer.

Registration and many more details for "One Day" Camps will be released later in the spring. Below are a few important items for you to know:

*Overnight lodging will NOT be available on the grounds.
*Due to the fact that this camp experience is different than in years past, we will not be utilizing our typical staff recruitment and application process.
*Cost to attend is $35.00 per camper and will include a camp t-shirt.
*Walk-Ons and those who register after the deadline are welcome at a cost of $40.00 and this will not include a camp t-shirt.
*All events, meals, and activities will be held outdoors.
