Daniel 6:16 “So the king gave the order, and they brought Daniel and threw him

into the lions’ den. The king said to Daniel, “May your God, whom you

serve continually, rescue you!” Our Bible Director, Captain David Bond, will lead us on a journey of

how to decode God’s Word, unlock His plan for our lives and

help us escape the worldly demands so we can live freely for Him.

This year, you will work together, in teams, following CLUES and solving puzzles, on a journey to discover the true KEY to life! Each day begins with the Faculty Band marching past your cabin and meeting at the flagpole for daily devotions. We will start the day right with breakfast, and participate in Worship and Bible, followed by your main stream choice, instrumental/vocal classes and there is NO ESCAPE from theory. After lunch, we have time for electives and of course, you have free time too. Our theme for the week is ESCAPE ROOM. Throughout the week you and your team will have an opportunities to test your problem solving skills, searching your environment to UNLOCK the mysteries of camp life, and just maybe RESCUE a friend in the process!
