Wagon Train

Elementary Summer Camp

JUNE 9-15, 2023

For kids entering 4th-6th grade who regularly attend All Stars at The Bridge.*

Summer Camps at Hume Lake are a life-shaping experience, inspiring the minds of our students for Christ, leaving them changed and hungry for more.

Clear Gospel Message. Recreation. Activities. Energetic Worship. Amazing Location.

Don’t miss it!

* Our desire is to allow this discipleship opportunity to kids who regularly attend the Bridge. For the time being, if your child does not attend The Bridge, please register them on the Waiting List.  If there is still space, we would be happy to move them from the Waiting List and have them attend with us.

Overview

Wagon Train is a fun, rustic summer camp for kids entering 4th through 6th grades. This Old West experience includes sleeping in a real covered wagon,  Archery and BB guns, canoes, and kayaks around the pond and exploring Fort Logan (our three-story island fort). 

But the fun doesn’t stop there! Camp-wide recreation games like Capture the Flag, the Water Carnival, and our awesome night game, Stampede, will have you talking about camp for years to come. You’ll also sit around a campfire singing worship songs, memorize scripture, watch amazing skits about the Bible performed by the Wagon Train staff, and hear the Good News of Jesus and his love for us each day. We almost forgot to mention: D&G tag, Chipmunk rappelling rock, Trading Post, an awesome treehouse. You’ll experience all this and more!

State law requires that your camper complete a mandatory Health Screening. Without this Health Screening, they will not be allowed to attend camp.
