GrandCamp 2023
Grandparents and their grandchildren, ages 6-12, are invited to attend Grandcamp 2023 June 26-30. GrandCamp is a fun-filled overnight camp experience, set amidst the oaks of Epworth By the Sea Conference Center, on beautiful St. Simon’s Island, Georgia.
This year’s theme will be, ‘On the Case: Uncovering the Truth – Who is God?’,
based on John 14:6, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Come and be a part of the 10th anniversary of Grandcamp where grandparents will continue to pass on the legacy of their Christian faith to their grandchildren; making memories for eternity.

Grandcamp: A Grandfather’s Experience
by Quentin Jackson (Gramps)
2018 was the second year Joey and I have been to Grand Camp. At the end of camp he always asks “Gramps, can we come back again next year?” What’s so special about Grand Camp? We have been on many trips, including Disney World, but Grand Camp wins out by a large margin. I believe this is for several reasons:
- The presence of God which pervades everything at Grand Camp.
- The quality of the program and the leadership team
- The opportunity for Joey and Gramps to spend five days together without competition from eleven other grandchildren.
- For Joey to be with his “friends”. He may meet them for the first time at Camp and he may not see them again when he leaves but he always talks about the friends he had at camp.
- The Spiritual growth that we both experience at Grand Camp.
With the first invitations for Grand Camp 2019 now out I want to encourage Grandparents to sign up for this very special experience. I particularly want to encourage Grandfathers to sign up. Too often we leave the grandparenting of the under ten year-olds to Granny but for a boy to have a week of one on one time with his Grandfather will create memories that will last a lifetime.

The accommodation is in the lodge rooms (think mid-priced motel). The food is delicious and there is always more than enough for even the hungriest camper. There is no yard work to do. The schedule leaves plenty of time to enjoy all that St. Christopher has to offer without leaving you exhausted at the end of the day. Your Christian Walk will be enhanced and your relationship with your grandchild will forever be changed.
