Who can attend Crossways?
Crossways is for confirmation-age youth, typically campers who have just completed 6th, 7th, or 8th grade. Campers may attend up to three years.
When and where is camp?
June 7–11, 2027 at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois.
What does camp cost?
$350 per person. Mentor campers are $175. Additional payment details will be included with registration information.
Does our congregation need to send adults?
Yes. Crossways’ current standard is one adult chaperone for every eight campers. Congregational adults help transport campers to off-campus activities, support small groups, and participate in the week. If your congregation cannot send an adult or is having difficulty finding one, please email the Camp Dean at [email protected] so we can help work through options.
What happens during a typical day?
Breakfast, morning prayer or worship, curriculum and small groups, lunch, an afternoon activity or off-campus experience, dinner, evening recreation, devotions, snacks, and time to wind down.
What kinds of activities happen off campus?
2027 plans include service projects, an interfaith visit, bowling and an off-campus meal, a water-park / park outing, and Whitey’s Ice Cream. Final routing is handled by the planning team.
What support is available for health or sensory needs?
Crossways plans dedicated medical and medication support, mental-health readiness, and a sensory / step-out space. Families will receive the final health and accommodation process as registration materials are completed.
What is a Mentor Camper?
Mentor Campers are returning older youth—currently 10th grade or above—who have previously attended CCC and want to practice leadership by assisting adults and younger campers. Positions are limited by the number of small groups and require approval from Raylee Brown / CCC staff before registration. Interested youth should apply or express interest first; please do not register as a Mentor Camper until approved.
When does registration open?
Registration opens February 1, 2027 and closes March 15, 2027.
