This is the summer that could change lives.
You want your child to have a summer full of fun, real friendships and a faith that grows. For more than 70 years, God has used a week at Camp Albemarle to change lives on the Crystal Coast, and this summer could change your child's life, too.
What grade will your camper be entering next term?
You want a summer that helps your child grow.
As a parent, you want your child to come home from camp happier, braver and closer to God than when they left. You want them to have a summer they will talk about for years.
We know how hard it is to find all of that today. Screens compete for your child's attention, schedules stay packed, and it can be difficult to find one place where faith, fun and safety come together. You should not have to choose between a camp your kids will love and a camp you can trust.
Camp Albemarle has guided families on the Crystal Coast since 1953. Each summer nearly 1,500 children join us for day and overnight camps led by trained, Christ-centered counselors who are committed to keeping every camper safe and helping each one grow.

After experiencing Camp Albemarle
Your child will likely come home tired and smiling, complete with new friends, new courage and a faith that feels like their own. And they cannot wait to come back next summer.
If you miss out
Without a life-changing experience at Camp Albemarle, another summer can slip by on the couch and behind a screen, and a season for growth during these important years passes quietly, never knowing who they could have been with just a little encouragement from some godly friends.
A summer rooted in faith. A life growing with purpose.
This is the summer that could change lives. Day Adventures meet in the Pines, and overnight camps are held on Bogue Sound. Campers spend their days sailing, riding the giant swing, practicing archery and gathering around campfires in small family groups led by counselors who love Jesus and love kids. We offer programs for students entering kindergarten through 12th grade, along with leadership tracks that help campers become servant leaders.
The same roots, all year long
When the cabins grow quiet, the woods and the Sound stay busy. Every one of these ministries grows from the same faith, and each one welcomes new families today.

Growing with purpose.
Whether it is a seven-year-old's first night in a cabin, a preschooler spotting a heron in the marsh, or a friend from Boundless Horizons catching a fish for the first time, everything we do starts in the same place. We are rooted in the love of Jesus Christ, and we exist so that every person who comes here can grow into who God made them to be.
That is why we have so much fun. Sailing, singing, muddy boots, campfires and laughter are some of the best ways we know to share the gospel.
We are rooted in Scripture, worship and prayer. Morning Watch, Bible study and Vespers shape every camp day, and devotions begin every school day.
Children grow through challenge and adventure on the water, on the trail and on the ropes course, building courage, character and friendship along the way.
Every person has a God-given purpose. Children, young adults and adults of every ability are welcomed, known and sent out to serve.
