We hope to see you this weekend, rain or shine — because Bible Camp, like Church, is all about the people. :)

Your presence & generosity means great ministry is not just in the past. It’s a blessing you can pass on to young campers for years to come. It’s you that lets children experience life-changing, Christ-centered Summer Camp programs at Sugar Creek!

This weekend includes time for you to reconnect and celebrate with fellowship, shared meals, fun fundraisers (Silent Auction Baskets, Country Store with purchasable items, a LIVE Quilt Auction with over 100 quality quilts, etc.), a special 60th Anniversary Dinner & Program on Saturday night, and much more!

If you are unable to attend – but you’d still like to contribute to the event and help strengthen this work… You can make a gift today in honor of "60 Years of Sugar Creek Bible Camp. 

Saturday features Pony Rides, Crafts, Yard Games and more activities. Lunch at the auction will be available for purchase and will feature BBQ and fresh pies. Other meals are served for a free will offering, Friday supper through Sunday breakfast. 

Come celebrate 60 years of “God stories” at your Bible camp! Join in as part of the wider Sugar Creek family, as we dedicate ourselves to “paying it forward” to bless kids, families, churches and communities… Together we can make sure that blessing happens for MANY more years to come. 

As all generations still sing in worship around the campfire, “You want — to pass — it on.” Let’s follow the same Spirit into the 60 years ahead.
