Waycross Camp
The core of Waycross is our Adventure Camp program!
This includes the traditional camp activities and promotes personal growth within a Christian Community. Campers will live in a camp community with seven other campers and two counselors. Emphasis is on the cabin group and coed adventure group that plans daily adventures. They will have the choice of swimming, canoeing, arts and crafts, hiking, archery, climbing wall and zip line, overnight camping, biking, and many other games and activities. A Christian Education team leads daily themes of worship, games and activities to nurture and develop spiritual growth.Waycross Camp is an active, fun place where campers are encouraged to do exciting activities that they wouldn't do at home. Waycross offers boys and girls a supervised, positive, non-competitive, Christian environment where they can laugh and grow through a variety of activities.
