Mission Camps

Pictured Rocks loves and appreciates both the youth and adult mission teams that descend on camp each year to help us maintain and improve our facilities.

Youth Missions:

This summer, we will be offering several weeks of youth mission camp during summer camp specifically designed for youth groups. Each mission camp has a specifically designed service project(s) to go along with the group's ministry goals. Their service projects are worked on at least during each morning block between breakfast and lunch. Then mission campers enjoy some afternoon camp program options and their designated evening program with their church leadership. Groups can stay one night up to an entire week at a discounted rate of $50 per person per day. ($20 for meals, $20 for Lodging, and $10 for project fees). Groups are responsible for their own counselors, health services and spiritual program. Space is limited. Open weeks (an open cabin/ lodge level) in the summer of 2010 are June 13-18, July 5-9, July 18-23, August 1-6, and August 8-11. Contact the camp office for more details.

Adult Missions:

Throughout the year we also welcome adult mission camps. Generally all expenses are covered during your stay. Groups are encouraged to help provide or supplement project costs when possible. Contact the camp office for more information.

Boy Scouts

Pictured Rocks provides an ideal environment for Scout Groups to enjoy a slightly different style of camping. Our Yurts house 10 people each. We provide miles of trails, varied adventure and recreation programs.

Pictured Rocks offers the opportunity to complete many of the requirements required for Merit Badges. Want to focus on something specific while you're our guest? Contact us so we can discuss how we can help.

We also have many opportunities for Eagle Scout projects! (Build a Bridge, Reclaim or Create Trails, Clean the Rock Bluffs.) Have another idea? Contact us to discuss it! What a great way to both complete your Eagle Scout project AND serve Pictured Rocks at the same time!
