About The Camp: We are a state licensed camp that runs eight weeks over the summer, filled with activities and themes that are both Christian & Fun.

Activities include: bible stories, arts & crafts, recreational games (both indoor & outdoor), music, special guest speakers/entertainers, skits, talent show and field trips. While the 4-6 year olds remain at camp every day, here are a few field trips our 7-12 year old campers will be attending: Astros Game, Splash Town, Pleasure Pier in Galveston, A.D. Players, IT’Z, Children’s Museum, Horseshoe Junction and more!

The always popular Camper Fun Days & Pool Days (optional for 7-12 yrs only) will be back, along with Chick-Fil-A-Mondays, Whataburger Wednesdays & new this year, Pizza Fridays. Since we are a Catholic camp, we have Prayer Services, Pray the Rosary and the Stations of the Cross. This year Father Clark will be teaching the 7-12 yr. olds about the different parts of The Mass. Also, this summer all our campers will be learning about, and praying to the Saints that have statuary in the Church.

Our Staff: Our paid staff consists of both adult and student counselors who are energetic, responsible and love to work with children. All adult paid staff members have taken the Virtus Safe Environment Course: “Protecting God’s Children” and are CPR certified. Our volunteer staff consists of junior high and high school freshmen students who are graciously donating their time to help at our camp.
