Camp is right around the corner and we’re so excited to see all that God has in store for us this year! We are super excited that we have more staff members than we’ve had in recent years. And 90 percent of the staff from last year will be back this year!

Week 1 is a week-long camp week. We will have ages 9-17 in camp. It’s Night Owl Week. Our campers will have the exciting experience of staying up later and later each night and doing nighttime activities. This has been a very popular camp in years past—we have lots of kids who like to stay up at night!

Our traditional camp for senior high campers is that week as well. We like to pamper them a bit, since they are usually longtime campers who are very dedicated to Mount Luther. Our cabin leaders come up with some creative programming ideas and usually we have a night where these campers dress up for dinner and have a special activity. I remember particularly enjoying this age group when I was a counselor, because they are so independent and open to deep conversation.

The Mount Luther experience is a blend of small and large group activities. Campers spend time in a cabin group with peer campers and their cabin leaders.

If you have not signed up for camp yet, there is still time to do it! Register today at: www.campmountluther.org/summer
