Planting Seeds of Faith So Kids Can Grow in Purpose

Catholic Youth Camp has been offering a quality Catholic camping experience while welcoming youth from all faith backgrounds since 1947. 

 

What Makes CYC Catholic?

  • Daily Holy Ground- Start your moring off right! After breakfast all of camp gathers to focus our day on the "C" of the day see a skit sing a song & leave ready to learn new things! 
  • Daily Praise & Worship – End our day reflecting on how much we learn & how great it is to be in having fun in God’s Creation. Sing at the top of your lungs for the amazing day we had! 
  • Weekly Mass- Celebrate the Eucharist CYC Style. Take all those songs from paise & worship and use them in mass. We have a different priest every week who gives his time to come & celebrate with us. 
  • Nightly Devotions- Spend some time with your cabin before bed learning more aobut your faith. Led by counselors devotions offers campers a time to share about thier day & how they truley lived out the "C"! 

At CYC prayer doesn’t just occur in the chapel.  Throughout every day we celebrate and find God in camp activities nature and each other.  Any camp can offer great programming but at CYC we plant seeds of faith so our youth can grow in purpose.

Our Catholic Identity

  • Catholic Youth Camp uses programming to spark youth’s interest in seeking a lifelong relationship with God.
  • Catholic Youth Camp provides youth the opportunity to discover God through the natural world experiencing a unique connection outside of traditional prayer.
  • Catholic Youth Camp allows youth to explore their faith through activities learning and movement. 

The 5 C’s of CYC

  • The 5 C’s are our set of values that guide our actions interactions and purpose at camp. Each day of chapel we focus on a different "C" and campers are challenged to use that "C" throughout the day.

"CYC is a great place to have fun, make friends, and share your faith. At camp, you can make a new friend almost anywhere like during activities, around the campfire, or in your cabin. If you get homesick, you’ll have nice friends and understanding counselors to help you out. You won’t need to worry about it too much because you’ll be having fun all day. No matter where you are, fishing, swimming, or playing soccer, you’ll be having a great time. CYC rocks!" - Joe
