About

The Salvation Army Summer Camps include both day and overnight summer camp sessions where kids take part in swimming, canoeing, hiking, archery, other sports, arts and crafts, music, drama, team-building activities, leadership training, community service projects, and scouting. The summer camp programs provide outdoor recreation, educational activities, and hands-on projects that are programmed with hands-on activities that spark curiosity and collaboration and foster education. Kids are under safe and supportive supervision by trained counselors in a safe, structured, and positive environment.

• Price: The Salvation Army’s network of free summer camps allows kids of all ages, despite their family’s income level, to have a safe, fun, unforgettable summer camp experience.

The Salvation Army camp counselors are trained to recognize the effects of the stressors of poverty on children and respond to a child’s emotional needs so kids feel safe, included, and welcome, and camp counselors are equipped to help children navigate complicated emotions and struggles related to poverty. The Salvation Army Summer Camps accept state-provided child care subsidies at most summer camps, and scholarships are available to help families offset the cost. Kids are encouraged to develop social skills through team-building activities, leadership training, and community service projects, and the program helps strengthen family bonds while providing enriching experiences. The Salvation Army is an international movement and an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church, and its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.
