Summer Camps

"They had a blast. It was a transformative week for them.
They came home singing all of the camp songs
and I can tell that they had a great time.
" - Camper Parent

"Coming back to Menno Haven gives me a sense of returning home, even after so many years of not having been there. I hope that my kids grow to love it as much as I do, and they too can return with their children and feel the sense of belonging and nostalgia I felt returning back. Menno Haven and the people there were such an important part of my spiritual development during my teenage years. I wouldn’t trade my time and experiences there for anything." - Camper Parent​

Each week of Menno Haven Summer Camp is filled with awesome activities  such as: worship, cabin devotions, sports, mud hikes, swimming, boating, crafts, drama games and campfires. We'll head to the Eagle Wing Activity Center for volleyball, basketball, the climbing wall and the game room.
