Camp Echoing Hills returns for 2022 summer season

| January 25, 2022

Echoing Hills is pleased to announce Camp Echoing Hills will return for its 55th summer beginning in May.

Camp Echoing Hills welcomes individuals with disabilities having mild to moderate medical needs, with specific weeks set up to accommodate individuals who require hand-over-hand care. This year, for the first time, there will also be an opportunity for siblings to join during Kids Weeks.

Campers will enjoy typical camp activities such as campfires, hayrides, cookouts, swimming, fishing, and arts and crafts. New activities this year include archery, hatchet throwing, low ropes challenge course, a nature area petting zoo, and side-by-side country rides.

Registration is now open for campers, individuals interested in working on staff for the summer, and those who would like to serve as a volunteer/missionary. Jimmy McNutt, Recreational Services and Outreach Director, shares anyone with a heart to serve makes a great team member or volunteer/missionary.

“I have witnessed people who had never worked with individuals with disabilities come to camp and quickly overcome any apprehensions they had previously had,” McNutt said. “I have also been fortunate to see students change their college majors after serving for as little as one week.”
