Is Wildwood A Christian camp?
In 1912, there was a vision for somewhere campers would feel safe, accepted, and loved. A place that would allow children and teens to encounter outdoors, engage in friendships and discover the goodness of God through it all.
Today, Camp Wildwood continues to offer an adventure that encourages Christian values. Each camp includes daily chapel-like sessions, complete with lively music and teachings tailored to different age groups, as well as cabin time for campers to reflect on their experiences and engage in discussions about faith.
