Experience the Best Week of Summer. Ever.

Summer Camp at Creekside

COMPLETED 5TH – 9TH GRADE

Creek Weeks are packed with tangles of crazy large group fun with epic, loud team challenges and still, quiet times sitting by the river, listening to the sounds of the woods and the whisper of God. Everyone eats, plays and worships together, but there’s plenty of time to draw close to your cabinmates and counselors, too. Keynote times include great musical worship, engaging speakers, lots of laughter, and dramas that provoke thought and discussion.

Powerful Lessons Taught in a Fun and Engaging Way

Small groups allow you to dig into the Bible passage for each day, learning from what God is doing in the lives of your counselor and friends. Integrated themes tie the Bible lesson, games, activities, dramas and life all together, allowing each person to take one step closer to Jesus.

Our Approach

image description

We Are Christ-Centered

Carolina Creek is an independent, non-denominational camp ministry inviting people to know and experience the love of Jesus Christ. We major on the majors and minor on the minors, focusing on Christ’s love and directing complex doctrinal issues to parents and pastors.

The Bible Is Our Source Material

Camp provides countless ways to learn using all of our senses, our hearts, minds, and imaginations. We mine the teachable moments that are created by activities, dramas, games and being in nature. Time alone with God in His Word, small and large group teaching and discussion, worship through music and movement all allow campers to come alive to God in His revealed truth through Scripture.

Our Summer Staff Is Second To None

Specialized activity and support staff ensure that counselors get to focus on loving kids and processing every part of their camp experience. We are diligent in hiring young adults who love Jesus and kids, are exemplary role models and will cherish your child all day, every day.

Safety Is Our First Priority

We work closely with consultants, licensing agencies, vendors and advisors to ensure best practices in emergency procedures, medical care staff recruiting and hiring, activities, food service and security. We strive to keep kids safe physically, emotionally and spiritually.

We Partner With Churches

Carolina Creek values the work of the church and will do all that we can to make the camp experience an integral part of your year round ministry.
