Camp Overlook About

Camp Overlook is a Christian camp in which the program is a laboratory in Christian living. The purpose of Overlook is to provide opportunities for Christian growth and self-development in an outdoor setting through a variety of worship experiences, fun activities and interpersonal relationships. It is designed as a vital part in the continuing Christian Education program of the local church. The worth of the individual is of primary importance and all who attend the camp are expected to live together in Christian fellowship. Opportunities are afforded each camper to relate to others and to God in his or her own way. The program and mature Christian leadership is intended to provide the best for a week filled with fun, fellowship, and Christian growth for each camper. Rules for acceptance and participation in the camp are the same for everyone without regard to sex, race, color, national origin, or disability.

The Staunton, Harrisonburg, and Winchester Districts of the United Methodist Church have provided Camp Overlook as a facility for their churches and as support for their Christian Eduation Program, especially those phases that can best be taught in the camp retreat setting.
