Summer Camp

SIX UNIQUE PROGRAMS. ONE WEEK. LIFE AT ITS BEST.

We were made for more than a digital existence. From rising 4th graders to graduates, every camper is invited to encounter God. Camp isn’t just fun and games; every moment is designed to break the routine and build confidence, belonging, and biblical impact.

OUR MISSION

Lake Ann Camp exists to challenge individuals in a group setting to make biblical, life-changing decisions through unique learning experiences.

Juniors

4th and 5th graders

Junior Camp is built for high-energy discovery.

We trade long lessons for fast-paced drama and chapel sessions that hold attention and show Christianity can be both meaningful and playful. Between the zip line, Zorbs, and LAVINRAC, your child stays active in a well-supervised environment where the bunks are clean, and the food is fresh.

Jump Start

Entering 6th grade

Jump Start turns 6th graders into explorers.

They’ll head into the wild, wade through the bog, find insect-eating plants, and net crawfish in the river. Whether tubing the Platte or climbing Pyramid Point, campers engage in hands-on discovery that builds the courage to make the right choices. It’s a week of treetop adventures and treehouse cabins, helping them find biblical footing in a changing world.

Junior High

7th and 8th graders

Junior High is built for action.

Campers tackle crate-stacking, Thunder Karts, and team-based laser tag. Between sleeping under the stars and climbing Sleeping Bear Dunes, they encounter a God who is big and real. It’s a week of daring challenges and faith-building moments at one of life’s greatest turning points.

Fresh Start

Entering 9th grade

Fresh Start is the launchpad for high school.

Campers spend three days on the Mighty Pine River navigating rapids, cooking over camp stoves, and sleeping under the stars. It’s a woodsy week that prepares them to handle the pressure of the next four years with courage and a clear sense of their identity in Jesus.

Discover Fresh Start

Senior High

High school and recent graduates

Senior High is camp at full throttle.

Cabins team up for outrageous competitions and the legendary Fight Night, then dive into challenge courses, worship, and late-night conversations that spark purpose and perspective. With close guidance from counselors and speakers who bring Scripture to life, students wrestle with questions and leave ready to live out their faith.
