Get on the waitlist for Winter Camp HERE
Forest Home is a weekend of fun, fellowship, worship, and time with God in His creation. We are getting away from our phones to take intentional time to fellowship together as a church community through the fun experience of camp. You don’t want to miss this! We will be going to Forest Home in the San Bernardino Mountains for the second year and we are so excited for all God will do at camp.
OVERFLOW JH Forest Home Trip Cost: $350
The trip cost of $350 covers the Forest Home student cost, all transportation and lodging, activities, the cost of trained, adult leaders, OVERFLOW merch, a trip journal, and all things necessary for a safe and fun trip. We have lowered the Winter Camp cost significantly from last year by using the church vehicles for transportation as opposed to a bus and underwriting about $3000 for merch, counselor costs, and transportation. We believe camp is an amazing avenue to experience deeper relationships with God and others and so we have worked hard to make camp as affordable as possible this year, please see the price breakdown below for more information. We never want finances to be the reason that your child misses out on camp and we have financial assistance available to all who require it!

Forest Home Camper Cost = $319 per camper
OVERFLOW TRIP Journal = $5
Misc. Costs = $25

While we do not take requests for cabins, new students will always be placed with the friend who brought them and most every student will have someone they are familiar with in their cabin. During the day, students are all together and are free to spend time with whoever they would like. The only time that students are separated in groups is for cabin time at the end of the night and sleeping. We love that we get to mix up our cabins so students get to meet and spend time with students who they may not be as close to yet. What is the student to leader ratio and who are the leaders?
Our typical ratio for this trip is 7:1 (students to leader). All adult leaders are current small group leaders and OVERFLOW alumni and are well trained for these trips.
