For over a century, Twin Rocks Friends Camp has been a place where lives are changed—where campers encounter Christ on the Oregon Coast, build lifelong friendships, and grow in faith. Today, we are stepping into a bold new chapter.
We are excited to announce The Next Great Adventure, a multi-phase capital campaign designed to strengthen and expand our ministry for future generations. Building on the success of our previous capital campaign Charting the Course—which funded the new Breaker House, housing and community for 12 Twin Rocks interns and young adult staff—we are now moving forward with a refreshed master plan..
Our Plan for the Future
Twin Rocks is active year-round, yet our dining and meeting spaces limit how many campers we can serve. We often experience crowding, especially near the buffets and salad bar. Our dining room comfortably seats no more than 280, while we often house well over 300. During high-demand weeks, we convert a meeting room into overflow dining, which reduces meeting space and constrains program flexibility.
Our Meetinghouse, with only 280 seats, often can’t accommodate our larger groups. This 97-year old chapel also sorely needs restrooms and a foyer.
After prayerful planning, a three-phase vision has emerged to remove these bottlenecks, unlock full program capacity, and prepare Twin Rocks for decades of ministry. Below is an overview of the projects included in this exciting new season of growth.
PHASE 1: New Maintenance Facilities
We’ll build brand-new maintenance shops and storage in a far better location in the southwest corner of camp with a service road from Highway 101. This keeps maintenance out of camper view, improves safety, creates easy access for deliveries and service crews, and frees up valuable central land for future ministry spaces.
In earlier plans, we considered placing the shops in another area of camp, but this new location simplifies infrastructure, reduces cost, and shortens construction time.
PHASE 2: A New Dining Center
On the vacated maintenance site, with views of Cammack Field and the Victory Circle, we’ll construct a spacious new Dining Center designed to seat up to 500 and flex into multiple rooms for simultaneous groups. Custom-designed for the needs of campers and staff, the new kitchen and improved service flow will reduce congestion and eliminate the need to sacrifice meeting rooms for overflow dining. This step directly expands our capacity to welcome more campers and groups.
PHASE 3: Transforming the Current Dining Hall into a Worship Center
Once the new Dining Center is in place, the current dining hall will be transformed into a 500-seat Worship Center— a meeting space designed for powerful moments of corporate worship and intimate times of reflection. Flexible, subdividable rooms will serve large conferences and multiple small retreats.
The historic Meetinghouse will remain, with the addition of bathrooms, and continue to be used as a chapel space .
Join Us on the Journey
This grand vision represents a long-term investment of close to $9 million. With God’s help – and your partnership – we can remove barriers, expand capacity, and welcome more campers into life-changing experiences with Jesus.
We invite you to watch the video above, explore the vision, and prayerfully consider joining us in this adventure.
