The Perfect Fit

When searching for a camp that suits your family’s personality, here are some things to consider:

While camping doesn’t have to mean pitching a tent in the wilderness and going without modern luxuries. If you’re more of the hotel versus pop-up-trailer type, there are plenty of Lutheran family camps that feature lodge accommodations, dining facilities and other amenities you want and need.

Do you go nuts for structure or like to relax? Ask about a camp’s programs and flexibility. Does the site you’re looking into have daily options for kids of all ages and adults, or is it more of a retreat center where you’re on your own for fun? If you crave a bit of both, many Lutheran camps offer a full menu of programs—you can choose to attend or opt out.

What can you afford to spend? Check into different cost options. Some camps may offer different fees depending on whether you bring a camper or stay in camp-owned facilities. Others may have meal options where you can pay for lunch and dinner but make breakfast in your cabin. If you’re trying to organize a large group, check and see if the camp offers package or discount rates.

For more information
on Lutheran camp options, visit www.thrivent.com/magazine/links, or contact your church. Most church body directories contain this information. Once you find a camp, register right away. Many camps fill quickly.
