The Camp Experience

Our Mission

Camp Nathanael is dedicated to winning boys for Christ, training men and boys in effective Christian living and preparing them for Christian adulthood.

Overview

Camp Nathanael offers a wide variety of activities for boys of many different interests. You'll get to play awesome games like water polo, Ultimate and Flicker during Cabin Period as well as study the Bible with them during morning devotions and Bible Ex. There are two free periods during the day with time for carpet-ball or free swim and a wide area game like capture the flag or Wells Fargo each evening. We wind down the day at campfire where we have camp songs, fun skits and a story each night. Check out out the slideshow below for some more info about some of the activities at Camp.

Facilities

Cabins

Our cabins are intentionally rustic. They have bunk beds and house up to 10 campers and two counselors.

Most of the cabins are not wired for electricity and the ones that are don't have it turned on for summer camp weeks.

We have two groups of cabins: Sioux Unit and Algonquin Unit. During weeks when we have both Junior and Senior campers, the older campers stay in Algonquin Unit and the younger ones stay in Sioux Unit, which is closer to the Washhouse.

Dining

Campers sit on benches at long wooden tables in our dining hall for most meals.

Washhouse

Private showers, flush toilets, running water.

Infirmary

Our registered nurse runs the Infirmary. She oversees distribution of all medication at Camp and treats scrapes and illnesses.

Spiritual Activities

Bible Exploration

Each day campers spend time studying the Bible with their cabin, lead by the counselors.

Campfire

Campfire is our end-of-day session. Campers sing songs, watch the counselors put on funny skits, and hear inspiring & spiritually grounded stories each night.
