Camp Loughridge’s Summer Day Camp is a classic Christian summer camp experience in a day camp format with kids coming to camp from 9:00 in the morning and staying until 5:00 in the evening. This program puts kids outdoors to do the things they love to do: archery, arts & crafts, canoeing, challenge and ropes course elements, chapel, court sports and games, nature hikes, sports, field games, and swimming. In addition, we provide special programing for children with Autism through our Autism Inclusion program. For more information about how to apply for this program, write to us at [email protected] .

A typical day at the camp starts with a “Morning Rendezvous” gathering filled with music, fun, skits, songs and a story. Then we move into our activity classes like nature hikes, swimming, arts & crafts, archery and swimming supervised by certified and trained lifeguards. Camp Loughridge is a Christian camp dedicated to sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ with kids in a rustic outdoor setting. Our goal is to help children experience a living, loving relationship with God and His creation. Your camper’s days will be filled with opportunities to experience the beauty of God’s Creation and to HAVE FUN!

Summer Day Camp at Loughridge is an all-day, outdoor camp. We provide quality activities and programming, and our campers play outside for most of the day. Campers should be able to follow instruction and interact positively with others. At the beginning of Camp, your child must be aged 6-10 for Summer Day Camp, 11-13 for Adventure Day Camp, or 14-16 for Counselors In Training. If you have any questions/concerns about your child’s health or ability to participate in Summer Day Camp, please reach out to us at [email protected].

Camp Scholarships

We want every child who wants to come to have the chance to attend. That’s why we are very intentional every year to raise funds for camper scholarships. Thanks to our generous donors we have a healthy fund set aside for those families who need some help with their camper fee. To inquire about scholarships and to request an application simply email us at [email protected].

INTRODUCING 3 BRAND NEW PROGRAMS!

Adventure Day Camp

(Ages 11-13)

Adventure Day Camp (ADC) is a program that is custom-designed for the unique developmental, social, and spiritual needs of preteens.  In this program, campers participate in more challenging activities and engage in deeper Bible studies!  This is an exciting opportunity to continue the traditions of summer camp, while promoting growth in a safe, Christian environment.

STEAM Camp(Ages 6-10)

Something new is surfacing at Camp Loughridge this summer…STEAM Camp! STEAM stands for “science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics.” In the morning, campers will engage in exciting STEAM projects and experiments, and in the afternoon they’ll enjoy classic camp activities, such as archery, canoes, swimming and more! The program is titled “Calamity at Ember Cove: A STEAM Camp Mystery,”. We are so excited to introduce this new element to our summer camp offerings.

Counselor In Training

(Ages 14-16)

The Counselor In Training (CIT) program will focus on the transition from camper to counselor.  This is a unique program that will be 2 weeks long, allowing CITs to still experience all the Camp Loughridge fun, while growing in their leadership skills using a Christian curriculum.  This program will focus on topics like responsibility, discernment, planning, and spiritual engagement.  As CITs demonstrate increased autonomy, they will be integrated into the Summer Day Camp program to assist staff and apply their leadership lessons.

Our Summer Day Camp is open for campers 6-10 years old. Campers may attend more than one session. 

We do offer Early and Late Care. If you are interested you may register your child for Early Care from 7:30am to 8:30am and/or for Late Care, from 5:00pm to 6:00pm. Both are available for an additional fee. Space is limited. (Not available for the Autism Inclusion program)
