Friday September 4th through Monday September 7th
Family Camp at Camp Bethel is back! You're invited to join us Labor Day Weekend for the perfect ending to your summer and the chance to make lasting memories with your family.
The entire camp and many of our activities are open for you and your family to enjoy. During the day, see if you can keep up with your child on the hiking trails, take them for a ride in a canoe, enjoy outdoor sports or simply relax by the lake as your children play.
There are optional activities throughout the weekend for you and your family to enjoy. You're free to dive in or take time to rest as a family!
And don't forget the most important part.... we will do all the cooking! We all know how stressful it can be on vacation to figure out what that next meal will be. Our goal is that your family mealtime is something both mom and dad get to enjoy fully without all the prep work. Just show up and grab a plate!
We do request everyone attend the Sunday morning worship service.
Housing
Each family is assigned to a cabin, RV site, or tent site.
Assignments are based on special needs and then on the order in which we receive registrations and deposits. If possible, we will honor requests to be assigned a cabin with another family.
