Jr. High Camp
2026-07-19 15:00 - 2026-07-24 16:00 (America/Chicago) | LSCA, 1674 Lick Creek Ln, Chatham, Illinois, 62629, United States
Junior High Camp is designed for students entering 7th and 8th grade who are ready for a week packed with excitement, challenge, and opportunities to grow. Campers stay in air-conditioned dorms, enjoy delicious from-scratch meals, and spend their days swimming, boating, playing gaga ball and 9-square, competing in team challenges, trying archery, and jumping into camp-wide games that match their energy.

But the heart of Junior High Camp goes deeper than the activities. Students gather daily for worship, Bible teaching, small group discussions, and personal reflection—creating space for real questions, real conversations, and real spiritual growth. This age group is navigating big transitions, and camp provides a welcoming community where they can build friendships, gain confidence, and better understand their identity in Christ.

Campers also hear from our summer missionary partner and have chances to support their ministry through canteen offerings throughout the week.

Junior High Camp is a powerful blend of fun, challenge, and faith formation—an unforgettable week where students experience God, community, and adventure in a whole new way.
