I am worried about my campers safety. How can I be sure he or she will be safe?

At Camp Shalom, we are dedicated to ensuring your loved one’s safety throughout their stay. Our comprehensive emergency procedures cover severe injuries, tornadoes, fires, and other urgent situations. We have two on-site Health Care Coordinators, and all aquatic activities are supervised by certified NLS lifeguards, whether at the pool or kayaking pond. Additionally, we are one of the few summer camps that require staff to undergo an intensive two-week training program. In case of emergencies, we are just a 15-minute drive from the nearest hospital.

We believe that an exceptional camp experience starts with an outstanding staff. That’s why we carefully select our team based on their spiritual testimonies, proven leadership, relevant qualifications, and clear criminal record checks. Every year, we take immense pride in assembling a team that is not only skilled but also deeply committed to creating a safe, positive environment. Campers are supervised at all times, whether they’re at the pool, enjoying free time, or participating in activities like canoeing or the waterslide.

What exactly does the Camp teach?

Each year Camp Shalom has a different theme for the focus of its Bible studies and chaplains’ messages. This theme is different every year, but the overall and most important message is the same: that God created us, loves us, and sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. We are saved by grace through faith, and we can have a personal relationship with God.
