              Program

              Camp Arrowhead is decentralized.  That means that campers are placed in family groups - they live together, eat meals together, and travel to all their activities together.  It also means that every camper that comes to Arrowhead has the opportunity to participate in everything we offer.

              Taste of Camp

              Taste-of-campers  are  entering 2nd grade and 3rd grade are in co-ed groups.  They come to Arrowhead for 4 days & 3 nights just to get a taste of summer camp.

              Day Camp

              This program is offered to children entering grades 3 to 6 who wish to experience camp’s wonderful activities, but who are not quite ready to sleep over.  Campers will be assigned to co-edgroups. Drop off your camper at 7:30am and return at 6:30pm for a full day of Christian camping and three good meals. Please note that there are both 4 and 5 day sessions which coordinate with our residential camp schedule.

              Homestead

              Homestead is for children entering grades 3 to 6. Ten campers live in a cabin with a counselor and a CIT.  This group becomes a “family” unit as they participate together in daily activities. “Homesteaders” are able to participate in all of camp’s activities.  Each group also has a remote campsite which they visit to cookout  and camp-out.

              Pioneer

              Pioneer serves campers entering 7th - 9th grade.  They live with their counselor and CIT in screened shelters at one of 7 self contained campsites. Each unit cooks one meal out a day and uses their campcraft skills to improve their campsite. All of Pioneer forms a tight group as they enjoy dances, games and progressive dinners during the evenings at Pioneer Hall.
