Makemie Woods offers a great summer camping program for kids entering first grade through Sr Hi, teaching essential life skills in a FUN and radically accepting Christian community. Many parents and campers continue to tell us about how their lives have been affected and changed by the camp experience.

Our online registration program greatly enhances and streamlines the process, reducing postage costs and wasted paper.  Returning campers are able to register quickly with just a few clicks, and first-timers have an easier means of selecting programs that meet their schedules.

To help families get a feel for our facilities and program, we have scheduled a 2nd Open House opportunity for Sunday June 2, 2-4 PM.

Considering a retreat or conference?

Our beautiful forest and scenic reservoir is a great setting for reflection, team building, learning and relaxation.  We can accommodate up to 130 guests in our seven all-season buildings, and another 50 in primitive seasonal longhouses used for summer camp.  See our facilities in more detail  or download our facilities brochure.

Makemie Woods also offers programming to help you make the most of your retreat experience--consider adding a flight on the ziplines, boating, archery or seeing the stars through the Brinton Observatory.
