Junior Middler Two July 8 – 14, 2012
This is a camp for students entering grades 3 – 8 in the upcoming school year. The camp is designed with two age groups in mind. While we share many common activities, such as morning activities, meals, worship and campfire, other parts of the day are specific to each age group. Typically, we have a group for students entering grades 3 – 5 with a second group entering grade 6 – 8.
In this way we are able to design program to “fit” student skills and abilities to the level they are at. Further, it creates an environment that assures each camper will get to know the others in their age group. Our camps usually have an enrollment of about 50 students or approximately two smaller groups of 25 (this can change depending on the age of who registers). This creates a genuine “family” feel for our campers and also leaves room for large group experiences with music and worship.
ChristianFormation: Exploring and experiencing the Christian faith has been the central theme at Camp Marshall since 1947. The central event at Camp Marshall is Holy Eucharist at our beautiful outdoor chapel. This has become the hallmark for participants at Camp Marshall.

Safety is our priority: At Camp Marshall the health and safety of each camper is our primary concern. Our staff-to-camper ratio is 1:7. Each volunteer leader is trained in safety and prevention.
