About Us
Joy of Living Camp exists to provide opportunities for all generations to experience life change through Jesus Christ, in the beauty of His Creation.
Why Choose Joy of Living?
The heart of Joy of Living Camp lies in our people—the dedicated staff who work tirelessly to create a welcoming and nurturing environment for every camper. We believe that camp is more than just a place to have fun; it’s a close-knit family where children feel loved, supported, and connected. Our team is passionate about helping kids build meaningful relationships with both adults and their peers, fostering a community where everyone is encouraged to grow and succeed together.
Since our founding in 1993, we’ve been dedicated to making camp accessible to all children, regardless of race, color, religion, or ethnic background. We strive to make Joy of Living Camp affordable for families, offering scholarships to those facing financial difficulties. Our goal is to ensure that every child can experience the joy and growth that camp offers. When you choose Joy of Living, you’re choosing a safe, fun, and transformative summer experience where your child will feel truly at home.
Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is more than just a summer camp—it's the culmination of all our efforts throughout the year. Every rental, retreat, and event we host serves as a fundraiser to send kids to camp during the summer.
All year long, we focus on this one goal: to provide these children with a transformative experience that will leave them with powerful memories and a stronger foundation of faith that will guide them throughout their lives.
At Joy of Living Camp, we are committed to providing underprivileged children with a summer filled with joy, faith, and friendship. Our six-week overnight camp, nestled on 760 beautiful acres by the Mohican River, is designed to be a life-changing experience for kids ages 7-15.
Here, children can immerse themselves in a supportive, faith-centered environment where they can grow spiritually, connect with God, and build lasting friendships. Surrounded by the beauty of nature, every activity is crafted to deepen their understanding of Biblical principles and help them feel valued, both as individuals and as members of our loving camp community.
