The camp provides a safe, wholesome and enjoyable experience where relationships between youth and their parent or guardian can be strengthened while away from the everyday distractions of life.
The camp takes place in the heart of the Arbuckle Mountains at Camp Classen. It offers a variety of exciting and challenging activities including rock wall climbing, canoeing on the lake, hiking up beautiful Warren Mountain, trail riding on horseback, fishing, skeet shooting and archery.
