Camp Florida

Camp Florida 2024!

 May 27th- 31st 2024

     Get Ready…

                     Stand Strong….

                Let’s Go to Camp!

Camp Florida starts Monday May 27, and will be again at the breathtaking Florida Elks Youth Camp in Umatilla, Florida. Camp is within a short drive from Orlando and attractions. This camp is built for fun on 410 beautiful acres.

Our goal is to provide an environment in which each camper will grow and strengthen their relationships with God and each other. This year we will focus on teaching God's way of life and guiding campers how to Stand Strong!

 

Camp Florida will provide a variety of activities including daily Christian living, archery, arts and crafts, campus improvement, campfire, canoeing, field games, swimming and high ropes course for campers 9 years and older.

 

  

Campers:
Dorms are arranged by age. Campers should be ages 5-12 (as of May 27). To attend, campers must have successfully slept away from parents/guardians for the length of camp and be able to shower without assistance.
 
 
Staff:
We are always looking for energetic and patient teens and adults to serve in all areas of camp, including as counselors, activity coordinators, lifeguards and nurses. Volunteer staff need to have a strong desire to provide the safe atmosphere that we call "the Zone," which is critically important to the success of the program and the camper experience.
 

 

 

Teen Staff

Teen staff are welcome, Ages 13-15 should have a parent or guardian on staff.

Come join us and make memories that will last a lifetime!
