The youth camp is open to all youth ages 13-17. \n\n\n\nThe Youth Camp is a venue where the youth can form lasting friendships with one another\, as well as share ideas and experience in a fun and wholesome environment\, where Christian values are openly talked about and actively practiced. \n\n\n\nIn the Youth Camp\, participants will hear about God’s great love proclaimed by other youth like them. They will be exposed to other youth who will serve them as speakers\, sharers\, facilitators\, game coordinators\, etc. Seeing other young people like themselves speaking of God’s great love\, taking on leadership roles and serving others will eventually encourage them to do the same. \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Register Online\n \n \n \n \n \n Download Waiver Form\n \n \n \n\n\nPAYMENT OPTIONS\n\n\n\nThe fee of $65 per participant will be collected to cover meals\, lodging\, t-shirt\, and materials to be used at the event. \n\n\n\n\nThere are three options for paying the participant’s fee:\n\n\n\nCash.  Payments in cash will only be accepted at the venue on the first day of youth camp.\n\n\n\nCredit Card. Payment by credit card or bank debit via FlockNote right after you register.\n\n\n\nZelle.

The session speakers and activities are led by senior MFC youth leaders.\n\n\n\nThere will be at least six (6) adult coordinators staying in the camp to provide support\, assistance\, direction\, and protection to the youth. All of them have taken the VIRTUS “Protecting God’s Children” program. Their names and contact information will be provided to parents/guardians via e-mail and when the participant checks in at the camp.\n\n\n\nIn order to fully participate in the activities of the youth camp\, the participants will be asked to surrender their mobile phones or devices\, which will then be returned to them after the youth camp. They may also just leave their mobile devices with their parents. If the need arises\, they may contact their parents or their parents may contact them through any of the adult coordinators.\n\n\n\nThe music ministry will teach them Christian worship songs and lead them in singing.\n\n\n\nThey will have an opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confessions) as well as attending Sunday Mass during the youth camp.\n\n\n\nThey will be sleeping in bunk beds in one of the large common rooms of the Lodge. Participants will share the room only with other participants of the same gender.\n\n\n\nThere will be lots of time to make new friends\, fellowship\, singing\, and fun.
