Elevation is an exciting chance to get out of the house and come to the forest for a week filled to the brim with activities! What better way to spend a week of summer than meeting new friends, taking “stroll” through the Redwood canopy on the Westminster Woods Challenge Course, playing wild games, and discovering what faith in Jesus Christ is all about? Because Junior High is a crazy time, we want to give students the opportunity to be themselves, have some fun, and ask the tough questions about faith!

HIGH SCHOOL CAMP
Week 2: (July 3rd - July 9th) Week 4: (July 17th - July 23rd)Grades 9th-12th
High School Camp is for students who know deep inside that there is more to this life than the noise and stress of the day to day, and who desire instead to push themselves beyond growing accustomed to the mundane routine of it all. Situated in the coastal redwoods of west Sonoma County, Westminster Woods is a place where students can engage Jesus Christ and the redemptive narrative of His Gospel. Whether sitting in a sun drenched meadow or within the cool shade of the Redwoods Canopy high up on the Challenge Course, a student coming to High School Camp at the Woods can develop eyes that can see and ears that can hear to reconnect with both who God created them to be and the purposes designed for them to be their way of life!
