SPRINGHILL IS FOR ALL KIDS!We believe that every child is created in the image of God and should be able to have the opportunity to go to camp. Our inclusion program allows children with special needs to participate in camp activities, make new friends and have life-changing experiences. Every child is integrated into cabin groups with other campers and receives a one-on-one counselor who is specifically trained to assist your child at no additional cost. Whether your child has a physical, behavioral, dietary, or medical need, our staff is well trained and equipped to handle all types of situations and procedures involved in keeping your child safe and healthy.

LIFE LESSONS AND TEACHABLE MOMENTSAt SpringHill, every activity has a purpose. Whether a child is ziplining or climbing the rock wall, all experiences relate back to God and can be applied to real-life situations. We know that God is changing the lives of young people. We are excited to be a part of it.


All SpringHill experiences are designed to fulfill specific spiritual growth outcomes for our campers.

Create the desire and ability to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ

Gain the knowledge, habits, and skills that will enhance their self-image

Build memories of a wholesome, meaningful, and joyful experience

Make a new or renewed commitment to their relationship with Jesus

KEEP IT SAFE. KEEP IT FUN!We understand that sending your child to camp is a big decision. For over 40 years, we’ve been entrusted by parents to take care of kids and foster their spiritual growth in a fun, safe environment. Whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, your child’s safety is our top priority and we go above and beyond to train our staff to make sure your child has the best week of their summer.

CAMP COUNSELOR… SUMMER LEADER!Formerly known as camp counselors, our summer leaders are the backbone of everything we do at SpringHill. Our summer leaders are mentors, role models, and the ones who set the tone for the entire camp week. We hire the highest quality young people to give your kids the best week of their summer. In everything they do, from activities to small groups, summer leaders seek to help kids know and develop their relationship with Christ. They are more than just camp counselors, they are true leaders!

CAMP CENTERS


PROGRAMS FOR TEENSThe Teen Service Team (TST) programs offers a chance to build relationships with Christ, make lasting friendships, do awesome activities, and learn through service.

Both TST programs include classic camp activities like canoeing, rock climbing, and ziplining. But, along with all the fun, campers also learn and grow through service. TST campers serve by preparing food, helping with cleaning, and doing other maintenance activities to keep camp running smoothly. TST Elite offers a more intensive experience focused on outdoor maintenance—potentially including equipment and machinery use—for construction and landscaping projects.

Both programs also offers special opportunities for really connecting to God. There are specific times set aside for personal reflection, journaling, and solo prayer, while small groups provide a chance to discuss curriculum, examine real issues, and pray together with other campers.

Sign up with TST for a summer of teamwork and growth!

Overnight camp for teens who have completed grades 9–12.
