Summer Camp Information
Camp CILCA is a great place to get away from the ordinary & experience Gods grace in His creation. Campers can get involved in a variety of activities like: hiking, sports, games, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, archery, creek walking, crafts, fishing, Bible study, campfire singing & devotions & more!
Besides our regular camps, we have specialty camps like Bike Camp, Night Owl camp, Special Needs Camp,Volleyball camp, Parent-Child camps, Parent/Child Canoe Trips, Family Camp, and Families with Hope, a camp for families whove gone through divorce. We also have a lot of great camp and volunteer options for High school youth,too!
Bring Friends
or Come Alone and make New Friends!!
Our staff is trained to help first-timers make new friends quickly. Camp CILCA is open to everyone whether they go to church or not. Non-Christian friends will find that camp is a fun way to learn more about God and His love for everyone. If you and a friend wish to be in the same cabin you BOTH must put the others name down as a cabinmate request (for the same camp). Camp is a great place to make lots of new friends, so if you limit the number of your cabinmate requests, you will have more opportunities to make some great new friends from around the state!
Camp Rates
Every year the cost to operate Camp CILCA goes up due to inflation and improvements to the facilities and programs. Even still, we are proud to be one of the least expensive LCMS camps in the nation. It may surprise you that the actual cost for each camper is much more than what we charge. Therefore, we depend on and are very grateful to our donors, who help keep our fees low and help us improve the quality and value of this ministry. You are invited to be one of our appreciated donors. Donors also help us continue to offer scholarships to those who cant afford to pay these rates. Even if you are unable to donate above what you are already paying for camp, we sincerely ask for your prayers.
