Summer Camps for All

Whether it is kids going to camp, families going to camp or adults going to camp there is so much to enjoy. There is boating, swimming, skiing, hiking, sunning, visiting, reading, or just plain relaxing. But none of those activities can compare with what you get when you meet an old friend anew, or get to know someone you share a pew with on Sundays.

Camp gives us an opportunity to actually live out what we hear from the pulpit, to work on our spiritual growth, to reach out to each others in ways beyond Sunday mornings, to explore the relationships God has provided for us.

We are fortunate at the United Churches of Olympia because we have 3 different camps to choose from. Two in the UCC conference, Pilgrim Firs is a retreat center outside Port Orchard. Surrounding Lake Flora, this secluded retreat center has 3 lodges and 11 cabins,  on 120 acres. N-SID-SEN is a retreat center on the shores of Lake Coeur d'Alene. Among it's 270 acres are 14 cabins, 3 lodges and a private swim cove. Sound View is a Presbyterian camp on the scenic key Peninsula. 105 acres on the shores of the Puget Sound include 2 lodges, 5 chalets and multiple tent sites
