Why my children go to Summer Camp…

Summer Camp is a great choice for our family.  We have three children who have found their niche while at MAPLERIDGE Ranch. Campers are encouraged to express themselves as individuals and embrace and explore their faith.

   MAPLERIDGE provides a nurturing and safe environment where our children are able to openly express their faith and create a real and lasting relationship with Christ. It also provides them the unique opportunity to be surrounded by their peers that espouse their same beliefs.

   Campers at MAPLERIDGE are encouraged to engage in activities that they can’t do every day at home: Playing in the mud, camping out, team competitions, and cooking over an open fire. What more could you ask for?        

   Campers develop a real sense of camaraderie with their bunk mates as well as their “color war” team mates. Campers get to experience the beauty of Upstate New York while taking hikes in the woods, riding horses, and swimming.  

   The most rewarding part of camp is being “unplugged.” Our children spend a week totally engaged with nature, fellow campers and God. They come home happy, tired, and asking to sign up for camp again next year!
