The overall objective for Quaker Lake Camp is for each camper to experience growth of the total person within the context of the Christian faith as experienced by the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) through participation in all phases of the camping program – worship, study, work and play. Our specific goals are:
- To provide a camp for youth regardless of race, creed, or color, where the principles and teachings of Christianity are taught and practiced in all phases of the camping program
- To provide an opportunity to learn some of the principles of Quaker faith
- To provide youth an opportunity to learn an appreciation for God’s creation and their relationship to it
- To provide an opportunity for individual self-development in such areas as self-image, values, responsibility, independence, etc…
- To provide an opportunity to acquire and improve interests, abilities and skills in areas such as crafts, swimming, recreation, music, etc…

Quaker Lake Camp is a wonderful place to learn new things. Some featured activities include: an Alpine climbing tower; mountain biking; fly-fishing; canoeing; swimming and water sports; cookouts; basketball; soccer; volleyball; scrap booking; pottery; little theatre; Frisbee golf; ping pong; pine cars; Bible study, and many others. This summer we are offering off-site adventures including backpacking and canoe camping. Through every activity, our goal is to build self confidence and challenge each camper in a non-competitive environment.
Quaker Lake Camp has been meaningful for so many. Take part in this summer camp adventure and learn new things, try new activities, be with God and share the special bond with friends for a lifetime! |
