Camp Bennett
What is Camp Bennett?
We are so excited for camp this summer! At Camp Bennett, a traditional Christian summer camp, we are committed to creating a space where financial circumstances and family background do not limit your child's opportunity to attend.
Campers experience the joy of summer camp through games, cabin-based challenges, delicious camp food, ropes courses, swimming, and so much more! Campers do everything from playing basketball, creating art projects, and exploring the nature around them! Then every night, campers get to hear about God's love for them, made evident through Jesus Christ.
We are grateful to our sponsors for making this free summer camp possible for families from DC and its surrounding areas, who might not otherwise have the opportunity to send their children to camp.
