Our annual summer camp is held at Harvey Cedars Bible Conference on Long Beach Island, New Jersey. During the week, students are challenged by an engaging speaker, they worship together with a live band, they cultivate lasting friendships and they "recharge" their spiritual lives! Students also enjoy many free-time activities including gym games, swimming at the ocean side beach or indoor pool, devouring ice cream at the snack bar and much more!
