CANOEING

Our waterfront-First Aid & CPR certified lifeguards lead canoers down the Guadalupe under the shade of towering cypress trees. After canoeing down the river, campers can jump off the “giant”, skip rocks, build dams, and catch minnows. This camper favorite activity is both fun and relaxing. Campers leave with a better understanding of water safety, canoe technique, and an appreciation for the beauty of God’s creation.

HORSEBACK RIDING

Campers will learn horsemanship as they participate in trail rides through the meadow. Campers also learn basic vaulting by first practicing on “Big Red,” our stationary “horse.” Then they are able to perform these tricks in our horse arena while being assisted by our wranglers. Our head wrangler is CHA certified (Certified Horsemanship Association) and provides a safe and fun opportunity for the beginner and experienced horseman alike.

TOWER CHALLENGE

Our 40-foot tower is an exhilarating activity that includes rappelling, wall climbing, zip lines, “The Screamer,” and “The Leap of Faith.” Our instructors are rope course certified, and all our equipment is carefully inspected. As a result, campers who were once afraid of heights have learned what trust looks like practically and have come to find that Christ can be trusted in all things.
