This camp operates under the direction of our Barn Manager and assists our wranglers in caring for the horses, cleaning and maintaining the barn, and helping to lead campers on trail rides. Additionally, Camp Carl wrangler staff will do an assessment of every WIT for their personal development.

The program is designed for students who are passionate about growing in their faith while serving. In order to proceed you need to fill out an application; if approved, a private link will then be shared to register.

Increased Experience in Day Camp Leadership

Our ministry and staff are growing, bringing more staff experience in day camp direction and programming.

Bring a Packed Lunch Daily

Please pack a daily lunch that your camper will enjoy eating. Packing your camper’s lunch allows special diets and preferences to be better accommodated. It also prevents increasing food costs and food waste. This gives opportunity for flexible mealtimes independent of other camp schedules, as well as creative locations for meals -- such as outdoor picnics, for example! Camp Carl will provide a substantial and yummy daily snack!

Find Transportation for Your Day Camper

We are finding that about a third of our day campers require or desire camp transportation. Coordinating transportation has been a rising expense, costing both dollars and hours. As we seek to steward our resources well, we’re encouraging families to share rides with friends or connect with your church about forming a rideshare group.
