Teen Girls Camp
New for 2022, Teen Girls Camp will offer girls ages 12-18 an opportunity to be creative, get active, and build strong friendships while experiencing all that Jacksons Point Camp has to offer, including archery, canoeing, swimming, and rock climbing. With a focus on leadership skills development, spiritual formation, and social justice engagement, Teen Girls Camp will encourage girls to live courageously. While this camp is ideal for girls who have participated in Grow or Brave programs in their local ministry units, all teen girls are welcomed to attend.
