Living in Faith Everyday

July 9th-15th

Cost $500

Calling all campers in grades 2-8! Get ready for a fun-filled week of faith and adventure. This summer, we have an exciting week planned to encourage campers to make new friends and explore God’s creation at the safe and beautiful grounds of Camp Lebanon. By participating in daily Bible studies and vesper services, campers will be able to grow closer to God & live in faith every day. Campers will participate in many outdoor and indoor activities, learn to work together, and experience an exciting week.

Activities include swimming, arts & crafts, ropes course, games, and snacks offered at our Snackery. Campers will have the opportunity to try something new with electives that include cooking, video making, sailing, rocketry, archery, and more! Camp wide evening programs will include a talent show, singing around a campfire, and an awesome glow party.

Hi, I am Jodi Griffin, and I am thrilled to be back at camp again! New Jersey was my home growing up, but I now live in Vienna, Virginia where I have been a special education teacher for 23 years. When I was 4 years old, my mom, Donna Thomas, started volunteering as a nurse at Camp Lebanon, and I was beyond fortunate to be able to go with her for the week. As soon as I could, I began my years as a camper (Junior, Junior High, Sailing, and Senior High) until I was able to (finally!) be on summer staff for six years where I spent my summers on the Maintenance, Waterfront, and Counselor Crews. Since then, I have been part of the Sailing Camp leadership team. Both of my children have been campers since mini-camp and are beyond excited for camp life this summer!
