We are committed to helping troubled teen boys who are heading down the wrong path. We have a safe and affordable camp environment for teens who are struggling with anger management, behavioral issues and/or addictions.
We are built on a foundation of Christian faith – fostering new behaviors, character development, and helping each boy recognize who they were created to be. We do this by providing an amazing environment where they can truly feel like they belong and create new, positive relationships.
