Attention all boys and girls ages 7-16!! These all boy and all girl camps have been running since 1941 and offer a unique camp experience! Come join us for a great week of activities, outdoor adventures, and learning more about God. Camp Sankanac runs four weeks of boys’ camp (June-July) and four weeks of girls’ camp (July-August). From creek stomping to hilarious skits, to cooking over a fire, to paintball and arrow tag, to tubing, to braving our mountain-sized water slide you don’t want to miss the outdoor adventures that await during our four weeks of boys’ or girls’ camp.

Each week of camp is tied to a different theme. The purpose of our weekly theme is to add a fun twist to the regular camp daily schedule. The themes play out primarily in our evening activity and in mealtime skits during the week. The rest of our camp day is largely the same every week. In the morning, campers have Bible and elective classes. In the afternoon, campers have rest time, free time, and activity time with their own cabin. After the evening meal, campers participate in a large group game or activity that is tied to the weekly theme and then they end the day with a chapel service.

Overnight Horse Camp

Overnight horse camp is sure to be a week you will remember for a long time! Throughout the week each camper will get to care for, ride and learn about horses. Daily lessons, crafts, Bible study, barn chore time, and swimming will fill the day, as well as special activities like trail rides, bareback riding, horse games, horse learning activities, and creek stomping/swimming with your horse. This camp is for all levels and you do not have to have experience to attend.

Horse Day Camp

All the fun of our horse camp programs, but in a shorter day camp setting. This program is a great way for beginners to intermediate riders to be introduced to and build their equestrian skills while enjoying a little bit of camp life including the pool, crafts, and games.
