YOUTH WEEKS
A SIMPLY, POWERFUL EXPERIENCE
REFRESHINGLY DIFFERENT
Not your typical camp experience! Uplift Mountain will provide your teens with shred experiences, new perspectives and lessons that you can build on for years to come
ACTIVE AND ENCOURAGING
Our expectations are high and the encouragement and needed guidance are in place to help students participate in things they might otherwise shy away from. We are focused on activities and adventures but non athletes will find that the entry points and levels of expectation are both doable and appropriate.
INTENTIONAL AND PURPOSEFUL
Your investment to encourage teens to follow Jesus is an important one. Your time at Uplift will be spent in meaningful activities and powerful potentials. Teens thrive where there are clear and meaningful objectives. Uplift provides these in abundance.
A TYPICAL DAY
Mornings start with a 7:30 breakfast and after a morning devotional we are headed out for an activity until lunch. Afternoons are spent in more adventures. At 4:30 or so we gather for a workout to end the active part of our day. There is ample time to clean up or fit in a round of disc golf before a 6:30 dinner. Our evenings are spent in the chapel with a time of challenge from the Bible (you can do the teaching or Dean can do some or all of your sessions). After service begins a quieter time of visiting the snack shop and playing games or having fellowship in the lodge. Lights out at 10 or 10:30 brings a big, meaningful day at Uplift to a close.
