“I loved a lot of things about camp but what I love the most were the people and daily chapel. My leaders were so kind and helped with any questions I had. Chapel was fun and very informative, helping me learn more about God and Jesus.”

Summer Camp Discounts
Pine Ridge strives to make camp as affordable as possible. However, we realize that families sometimes still need additional support. The first thing to consider is participating in one of our Camper Fundraisers. We have two Food sale fundraisers with dates in March and April, and we also have a Key Card fundraiser that can be done at anytime. With much gratitude to many friends of Pine Ridge, we are able to offer generous scholarships to help those that can not participate in a fundraiser.
