Family Camp

As a way of saying thank you for sharing, if a family you’ve invited, who’s never been to a Mount Hermon Family Camp before registers let us know. You’ll receive an additional 15% OFF your total cost of camp. Call our Family Camp registrars for details.

 

Mount Hermon Family Camp means fun and excitement! Our outstanding Child Care, Day Camp, Youth tracks and expanded collegiate offerings are a vibrant part of the Mount Hermon summer—and we now offer babysitting! Fabulous speakers, seminar leaders and musicians make a week of Family Camp an experience you won't forget! In family times together you'll enjoy BBQ's, outdoor Pancake Breakfasts and superb meals in the Mount Hermon Dining Hall. Flex breakfasts and salad bars at lunch and dinner are a great weekly feature.

Family adventures include hikes, a train ride to Santa Cruz, family games, campfires and S'mores! Family portraits offered each week will capture your memories—maybe even next year's Christmas card! Climbing wall and ropes course challenges are part of the many recreation options, as is boating on Zayante Creek and swimming in the Conference Center swimming pool. Our world-class Redwoods Canopy Tour course opened in July '08, zipping 100+ feet high through the Bean Creek Canyon. And the beaches of Santa Cruz are located just six miles from Mount Hermon for the salt water crowd!

For Single Parents
Single parents find special encouragement with our seminars and support times.  "Single Parent's Support Group" is part of every Family Camp, where single parents can meet and share common concerns, enjoy mutual support and network resources. A pastoral/counseling facilitator leads the sessions. Plan to attend for growth as a parent and as a family.

For Children & Youth
Child Care for ages 0-5 and Day Camp for grades 1-6 are available at each Family Camp. A caring, trained staff provides age-appropriate activities, Bible stories and learning projects. Some family sessions may include grade schoolers so they can participate in extended family learning. For junior high and senior high students there are separate youth meetings and special activities. Youth directors plan fun games, skits and music with Bible study and discussion. At times the youth groups take part in major family sessions.

Camperships for your Family
Life is full of surprises and challenges.  Often those challenges impact our family finances and, as a result, tough priority decisions must be made.  We believe so strongly that your family will be blessed and strengthened by a Family Camp experience that we have developed a special Campership Fund for times such as these.  Families just like yours—many who have benefited from the Campership Fund—are now generously giving back to ensure that all families have the opportunity to experience Family Camp.  To learn more, or to request an application, please contact the friendly staff in our Registration Office.
