Registration is now open!
Registration for overnight camp opens April 12th. Check out the REGISTER page to register by mail, online or for details on registering as a church group.
Check out the updated summer schedule and pricing information. Camp will look a little different as we open this summer, but the important things won’t change: camp will prioritize safety, camp will be full of fun, and camp will be a place where people meet Jesus.
Please note, most camp sessions have been shortened from the traditional time frames to allow for better separation between groups and to allow for new sanitization procedures in 2021. As further guidance is released from the Center for Disease Control, the American Camping Association, and state and local officials, we will continue to update the Cowen webpage with our protocols and procedures.
This will address specifics such as symptom screening before and during camp, increased sanitization procedures, reduced group size, using a cohort model, utilizing masks, and changes in housing, meals and activities.
Day Camp opportunities and Camp in a Box program information will be released soon so stay tuned for more info!

Sunny Day Building Project
The Sunny Day Leadership and Activities Center will house three classrooms and a gymnasium facility. The hope for the new facility is to honor the leaders who have gone ahead of us by continuing the training necessary for church leadership to thrive in the future. With three separate classrooms, leadership training for extra campers will be able to occur simultaneously with camps that are already established during the summer. The gymnasium area will also provide a place for indoor activities to occur when the weather gets rough as well as an area for athletic groups to utilize and potentially be brought face-to face with the Gospel message.
Funds are still being raised and needed for the new facility but the location of the building is ready. As you consider how this new ministry can impact the youth in your church and how it can minister to churches and groups individually, please prayerfully consider how you can be part of the development in ministry at Camp Cowen.
For more information on the new facility and for a video to share with your church, click on the button above.
