When your teen registers for adventure camp, there is so much to which they can look forward to. The anticipation builds from the moment you register to the day they begin packing their bags. They can’t wait to experience camp, see God’s creation, and make new friends. 

While all the excitement and buzz may be attributed to the camp itself, preparation is among the primary benefits of the overall experience. 

This summer, I went on the Hawaii Girls Adventure to Kauai with Created for Adventure. I was nervous because I had never flown in a plane before or been so far away from home! I honestly never liked going to summer camps and had always had a difficult time being away from home.

Everything about this trip was out of my comfort zone. But somehow everything seemed to add up perfectly for me to go on the trip. I truly believe that God wanted me to go on this adventure.

I’ll never forget the time I gave the keys of my house to my sister while I was away in Alaska for the summer. I was gone for three months and my sister, Jennifer was going to keep an eye on things for me. The moment I stepped into the house I was shocked!

There was no trace of my sister, or her belongings, and the house looked better than I had ever seen it before. The floors were spotless, the tables were dusted, and the house smelled clean.

Not only did she take the time to clean up after herself, but she left the house better than she found it. Wouldn’t it be nice if we practiced this same principle to the trails we hike, and the places we camp?

Do you wish you could convince your teen to put away their phone and go outside? At the same time, do you fret over whether they will learn vital skills and life lessons before they graduate high school? Adventure Camp is the perfect way to ensure your child can take a break from living inside with technology, experience the great outdoors, and develop the abilities that will stay with them for a lifetime. 

In this article, we are discussing some of the ways children and teenagers learn and master lifelong skills through Adventure Camp.
