First Timers
Completed grades 2–4

Never been to camp before? This is a great camp to give it a try. First Timers stay in family groups for a half-week (3 nights), living in Summer Cabins for one night, cabin campsites for one night, and tents for a night with two counselors. It’s a great chance to experience different ways to enjoy camping at Stronghold. We understand the importance of caring for this special group of campers, so more time is spent in small groups, taking time to listen and answer questions.
First Timers Letter
