Camper application

Volunteer application

We'd love for you to join us, whether your a person with a disability, or if you'd like to give of yourself as a volunteer for one of our camp sessions. When you share one of these weeks with us, you'll experience fun, fellowship and love shown through our volunteers and staff.

SESSION I - July 20 - 24, Pastor: Jim Loveland

SESSION II - August 16 - 21, Pastor: Loren Winn

Specifically designed for physically disabled individuals age 18 years old and up. We encourage campers to bring their own attendant. If that is not possible, Christian Overcomers will arrange for a volunteer. (A camper younger than 18 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian unless other arrangements are made). Adapted recreation, campfires, hiking, swimming, seminars, chapel and worship, crafts, fun and friendship are some of the experiences available during the week.

AUTUMN GETAWAY- October 26 - 30, Bishop Charles Singletary

Do you want to get away and have some quiet time? Come to our Autumn Getaway, enjoy some relaxing time watching movies, worshipping during chapel services, studying the bible, crafts, chocolate candy making, and experiencing fellowship. Limited volunteers available so register early.

HOW DO I PAY?
We realize camp fees may cause a financial burden: limited partial scholarships are available. Forms will be sent out upon receipt of deposit and must be returned within 10 days. Weekly or monthly payments can also be made ahead of time thereby decreasing the balance due by the time camp starts. We accept payment by cash or check. Indicate method of payment on Application Form.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES We're always looking for competent volunteers to join us during our camp sessions.

JULY-OCTOBER SESSION - Living with a disabled person and providing for their daily need for the week as well as being a friend and companion are the requirement for a volunteer privilege to attend either of these weeks. Volunteers come from all walks of life-from the students to the retiree, from the homemaker to the professional- ages 17 and up. Good health, maturity, flexibility and a loving servants heart are mandatory. Training is provided. As a volunteer you're not required to pay for camp, however, any donation you make will help to offset the cost of the program.
