Many of our counselors are former Holston campers who have returned to pass on their skills and experiences to others. Staff undergoes a thorough application and interview process that identifies positive morals and appropriate skills combined with a desire to provide leadership and exemplary Christian faith. We recognize that your most precious possession is your child, so we make every effort to hire, train, and oversee a team of counselors who will provide a safe and joyful experience at Holston. Several generations have passed through our summer camps and many of them return to recall the life-changing experience they received here. We discuss the teachings and examples provided by Jesus as a model for our own lives. Campers are encouraged to think seriously about how we relate to others, the environment, and God. Morning worship and evening vespers are led by an ordained minister or elder. Kids make new friends, have fun, and learn important Christian values and traditions as they realize a greater purpose in their life. Under supervision from trained staff, campers embark on a journey of mind, body, and spirit to learn about themselves, and how to relate to others and the environment in a responsible way. We offer overnight summer camp for small groups that live informally in simple cabins and participate in age-appropriate activities that are different from what can be done at home. We believe Holston Camp offers the perfect setting for youth to escape and “unplug” from the day-to-day world and be transformed in our mountain sanctuary during their time at summer camp. Why do we offer an untraditional Christian summer camp?
