Labor Day Weekend
Friday to Monday
August 30th-September 2, 2024
Family Camp at Camp Bethel is back! You're invited to join us Labor Day Weekend for the perfect ending to your summer and the chance to make lasting memories with your family.
The entire camp and many of our activities are open for you and your family to enjoy. During the day, see if you can keep up with your child on the hiking trails, take them for a ride in a canoe, or simply relax by the lake as your children play.
There are optional activities throughout the weekend for you and your family to enjoy. You're free to dive in or take time away as a family!
We do request everyone attend the Sunday morning worship service.

Family Camp Memories
SCHEDULE
Check-In and Meet & Greet activities begin on Friday evening and you won't want to miss Slip-n-Slide Kickball. Then after a delicious breakfast and devo's on Saturday morning, camp activities like hiking, craft house, gymnasium, the rec room and more are available. During the afternoon, the lake and lake-side activities will be available. (A lifeguard will be present during swimming times.) Nightly activities may include speaker sessions, campfires, S’mores, family games, our new rec pad and more.
On Sunday morning, we ask that you join us for our Family Camp Sunday Worship Service by the lake. After lunch, the lake and camp activities will once again be open for your enjoyment and relaxation.
The weekend will conclude after breakfast on Monday morning with well wishes until the next time we gather together.
HOUSING
Each family is assigned to a cabin, RV site, or tent site.
Assignments are based on special needs and then on the order in which we receive registrations and deposits. If possible, we will honor requests to be assigned a cabin with another family.
CABINS
Many of our cabins are hand hewn log structures. Some have bathrooms within them and all others are within a short walking distance of modern shower houses (yes, there is plenty of HOT water).
RV SITES
We have seven RV/Camper sites with full hook-ups, reserved in advance on a first-come basis.
TENTS
Bring your own tent and we’ll find you a nice spot near shower/bath facilities for some really fun camping.
