About

The program also features Barnyard Olympics, 9-square in the Air, team-building sports, and organized tepee and “Indian Tribe” competitions that include tepee clean up and design, tribal games, and scripture memorization, as well as Braves and Maids Hour activities like quiz competitions, Bible drill competitions, and skits and songs performances.
• Ages: 7–17 years old
• Schedule: Camps are 72 hours long but span 4 days (Wednesday–Saturday), beginning at 3 p.m. the first day and ending at 3 p.m. the final day of each camp.
• Price: All youth camps are $100 per camper per session if registered by June 1; after June 1 the camp fee increases by $30, with a $10 sibling discount for each additional child from the same family, and an optional $13 t-shirt charge for late registrations. Camp fees include craft and recreation supplies, a 4x6 photo, and all meals and lodging, and the $50 pre-registration portion of the total fee is non-refundable.
The camp accepts all boys and girls ages 7 through 17 regardless of race, national origin, or denominational affiliation, with campers separated into “Tribes” and summer camps conducted on a theme of tribal life and Indian lore. Camps are divided by those entering grades 2–5, 6–8, and 9–12 in the fall, and the camp can handle 72 campers per session. The mission of Tepee Bible Camp is to provide each camper with a group living experience offering Christian, educational, and recreational activities in an outdoor environment, with the main objective to instruct each camper to a personal acceptance of Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and to provide them with tools to help them daily connect with God and cope with the pressures of life. The camp’s main goal is to present the gospel of Jesus Christ to boys and girls in an outdoor environment with specially planned activities, with special emphasis placed on Bible teaching and Christian living, and Bible teaching is provided by competent, qualified teachers. Tepee Bible Camp is a non-profit, nondenominational, Bible-based camp incorporated by the State of Colorado, is financed solely by gifts from people who support children’s camping and ministry, and is a ministry of faith. The camp states a goal of encouraging campers to be Trustworthy, Respectful, Inspiring, Brave, Encouraging, Servants (TRIBES), and all staff members, Board Members, and Camp Directors are unpaid volunteers.
A medical person is on duty 24 hours a day, and an infirmary is provided with isolation in cases of illness. For sleeping, campers are asked to bring either a washable 3-foot-wide camping pad, a twin size air mattress, or a camping cot, along with a sleeping bag, pillow, clothing for each day, extra socks, flip-flops for the shower, at least two pairs of shoes (not sandals), personal hygiene items, towel, washcloth, Bible, flashlight, canteen or water bottle, hat, insect repellent, and sunscreen, all labeled with the camper’s name. For the White River Forest Hike and the “Life’s Trail” hike, campers should bring a strong pair of shoes (not a new pair), long pants or jeans, and a jacket or sweatshirt to protect their skin. Items not to bring include short shorts (all shorts must be finger-tip length or longer), short skirts, shirts with spaghetti straps, belly shirts, electronic devices of any kind (including tablets, laptops, and cell phones), pocket knives, sling shots, and snacks or candy, and items left at camp that are not claimed within one week will be given to charity. Registering by June 1 ensures a free t-shirt, and campers whose parent or guardian volunteers for an entire camp have their fees reduced by 50%.
