Camp Life @ Grand View Camp
Housing
Campers enjoy a cozy and restful stay in one of our 16 well-appointed cabin units, each thoughtfully designed to accommodate 8–10 guests with five sturdy adult-sized bunk beds and a comfortable king or queen bed for counselors or leaders. Each cabin features in-floor heating for chilly mountain nights and a private bathroom with two showers for added convenience. Cabins are paired with a neighboring unit and connected by a spacious, shared front porch—an inviting spot for morning devotions, evening conversations, or simply relaxing in the peaceful surroundings. Blending comfort, functionality, and rustic charm, these cabins offer the perfect home base for rest, reflection, and building lasting friendships.
The Main Lodge
The Main Lodge is the heart of camp life, bringing everyone together for meals, worship, and community. Its spacious dining hall seats up to 200 campers and serves three hearty, home-cooked meals daily in a warm, communal setting that fosters friendship and connection. The main meeting room, also with 200-person capacity, is fully equipped with a projector, screen, sound system, wireless microphones, a keyboard, and guitar input for worship and teaching. A large activity room serves as an alternate worship space or a place for games and indoor activities, while two smaller breakout rooms, each seating 20–30, are perfect for leadership training, devotions, or cabin discussions.

At Grand View Camp, activities are designed to inspire fun, build friendships, and encourage spiritual growth. Campers can enjoy a wide range of outdoor and indoor options, including hiking, archery, disc golf, trail rides, paintball, hatchet throwing, slingshots, the climbing wall, archery tag, and BB guns, as well as team sports like basketball and volleyball.

Daily Preaching & Spiritual Growth
Spiritual growth is at the heart of Junior Camp. We believe that even young hearts can know, love, and follow Jesus. That’s why every day is thoughtfully designed to help campers understand God’s Word, experience His love through caring counselors, and enjoy the beauty of His creation. Spiritual development isn’t just a part of camp—it’s the purpose behind everything we do.
Campers engage with clear, engaging Bible lessons that teach foundational truths in a way they can understand and remember. Through guided devotional time, kids are introduced to personal Bible reading and prayer, learning how to connect with God on their own. Group discussions and counselor chats offer space for questions and encouragement in a safe and friendly setting. Each evening, campers come together for worship and kid-focused messages that bring the day’s lessons to life.
We believe Jesus is revealed through His Word, His people, and His creation—and Junior Camp is built to point young hearts toward Him in every moment.

A Typical Day at Junior Camp
Morning
Campers wake up, clean their cabins and head to the dining hall for breakfast together. Next comes God & I Time, when campers study through a theme or a book of the Bible. Then everyone gathers for Chapel, where we sing together and the morning message builds on that same God & I Time study. Team games get the energy going.
Afternoon
After lunch, juniors gather for an afternoon lesson. Some weeks it’s lessons from science as we look at God’s creation, and other weeks it’s a missionary story that carries through the whole week. Afterward, campers meet together to review and discuss what they learned during God & I Time. Then it’s time for fun! Juniors stay with their counselors and rotate through activities together as a cabin group: trail rides, the rock wall, the BB gun range and more. Campers can also stop by the Outpost, Sweets & Treats or the Craft Shop.
Evening
After supper, the evening service brings the whole camp together for congregational worship and preaching from God’s Word. The day ends back in the cabin, where counselors lead devotions before lights out.
