SUMMER DAY CAMPS 2024
Registration will be open on April 1st.
At On Target Outfitters we teach a lot of outdoor skills and a lot about nature, but we also teach kids about God - the creator of it all. Every day we also pause for a break in the middle of the camp to help students understand that God created them special, that He has an incredible plan and purpose for their life, and that in any circumstance He is there for them. We are confident that at the conclusion of our camps, your children will leave with greater knowledge and skills specific to the camp they are in, and also greater understanding of the One who created them.
