What to Expect for Tween Camp2024-08-15T22:26:46+00:00

Tween Camp is all about awesome activities, building friendships, and opportunities to grow. It’s a week full of activities like skimboarding and wave jumping, sand volleyball, and Frisbee golf. Recreation games range from those that focus on teamwork to the ones that are wild and crazy! Tween Camp is a place where you can be yourself and get to know others in a setting that is welcoming and fun. There are also opportunities to grow spiritually through cabin group discussions, classes with relevant topics, and times of worship together.

Tween campers gain a much-needed sense of independence and grow socially as they build friendships with those in their cabin and learn how to interact appropriately with those of the opposite gender in structured settings. Respect and care are important aspects of camp, and dedicated camp staff counselors model these sorts of friendships for campers and guide them as they build new friendships of their own.

Tween campers also grow spiritually through focused conversations about God and his love for them. Engaging classes give them opportunities to see God at work in nature and praise God in times of worship together. Counselors spend time during the week with campers to offer encouragement and support in their spiritual journey.

Join us this summer for an incredible week of friendship, fun, and growth at Tween Camp!

What the Campers are Saying

“My experience was getting to know and worship God more than I do at home. I also had a meaningful experience with my counselor and cabin mates.”

“Twin Rocks is a place where God regularly and consistently meets me. This week marked the beginning of a new season of health and positive forward movement in obedience to God’s leading.”

“So much fun. I love sand volleyball on the beach.”

“I love it, and I will miss it. Looking forward to the next camp.”

What the Parents are Saying

“When I picked her up she said, ‘I wish camp could last all summer long!’ ”

“When we asked our son what he liked about Tween Camp, he listed everything from recreation to worship. When we asked him to narrow it down to what his favorite part was, he told us he couldn’t narrow it down to just one thing because he loved every part of Tween Camp!”

“Camp is INCREDIBLY well run. We always know what to expect, what to bring, and how to prepare. As a worry-prone mama, it’s a JOY to send my kids to TRFC and never, ever wonder if they’re OK – I know that you’re watching out for them physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It’s really a gift.”

“All camps should be run like Twin Rocks. The camp is organized, clean, and friendly. If you don’t know where or what to do, someone is there with the answer.”
