In Depth

The river changes people.

Don’t take our word: ask the high-schoolers who tackle Fort’s In Depth. This weeklong adventure challenges teens in ways they will never forget. Canoeing, white-water rapids, camping, team-building, deep friendships, and more await your teen this summer. In Depth is their chance to take their faith (you guessed it) in depth!

Nobody is beating us to the other side…
Getting to know what God has to say
Counselors invest in time with campers
And he emerged out of the mire…

First time camper?

Read our Frequently Asked Questions! Don’t forget to invite a friend and request them as a cabin mate on your registration form!

Transportation

We welcome your family to drive your child up to Fort, take a tour, and meet your counselor. You may also utilize our transportation. It is available for our summer youth programs, with pickups on opening Saturday and drop-offs on closing Friday of camp. We use a coach bus and/or vans, all chaperoned by trained Fort Staff.
