Where is the camp Located?
Camp Imagination is located in Happy Valley at a Campground called Scouter's Mountain. The busses however pick up the campers from Gresham and South East Portland.
Can I get a better understanding of the daily schedule?
Every day starts with what we call group time. During group time the camp splits up into it's small groups (7-12 Kids Per) and each group plays a new game every day. After this the camp comes together for Circle time (Usually around 10:30 AM). Songs, skits and outrageous games make up circle time on an average day at camp. Some days we use this time to speak to the campers about what it means to live like Jesus lived in a modern setting. After this camp breaks up for either free time or group contests (scavenger hunts etc.). Lunch lasts from 12:15 (hand washing) to 1:15 (Clean up). Afternoons are usually when we play large camp games like Capture the flag or Huge relay races until 2:30 ish when we open up the water slide and cool off. We typically have crafts going on in the lodge for those that don't want to get wet. This all lasts until 3:15 -3:30 when we break for snack. And that wraps up a typical day at camp imagination, when we drop the kids off (Exhausted!) to the parents at 4:30.
