Wednesday:  Day Trip to Red Fish Lake where campers swim, sun on the sandy beach, and play games. Be sure to bring your camera on this trip as the Sawtooth Mountains surrounding the lake are spectacular. Dinner that evening is named "Wacky Wednesday" as everyone dresses up wacky and fun for dinner...bring your dress-up clothes.

Thursday:  Hiking/Picnic and Evening Cookout, Group Photo, and Talent Night. Cabins and individuals are encouraged to share their talents, creative skits, and humor.

Lodge time each evening is filled with games, skits, singing, shared talents and lots of laughter.

Campfire is in a beautiful wooded setting where we have our evening chapel.

The cross atop of the mountain can be seen from the log seating at the campfire meadow. Often deer will stroll through just as millions of stars begin to appear in the night sky.

There is never a dull moment at Camp Sawtooth. Campers will live, worship, play and pray together as part of a Christian community all in the surrounding of God's awesome creation. Friendships and memories are made that will last a lifetime.
