Ascend at Camp Monadnock

There’s a place for you here

Welcome home to Camp Monadnock, where every kid belongs

Spend a transformative week at Camp Monadnock, a fun-filled, faith-forming getaway where kids and teens can disconnect from technology and plug into friendship, nature, and lifelong memories.

Organic outdoor exploration, close-knit conversations, and late-night laughter around the fire…camp is a refuge from the hustle and bustle of life, where students can connect with each other, caring counselors, and a God who loves them. 

It’s a place where the days are fuller, time moves slower, friendships form faster, and God feels closer…all in a safe, loving Christian environment where students will be inspired to take the next step on their spiritual journey.

Find the perfect camp for your child

At Ascend, Camp Monadnock’s summer program for kids and teens, your camper will challenge themselves with outdoor activities, surrounded by supportive cabin mates who have become like family. Most importantly, they’ll encounter the God of the Bible through energetic worship, gospel-based teaching, and small group times to process all they are learning about God.

How to register a group:

Fill out a simple form telling us about your estimated number of campers and if your church will be paying all or some of their registration fees (we will set up a discount code for your campers if so).

Your campers will still need to register individually to attend. Campers’ spots are held on a first-come, first-served basis, but we do try to house campers from the same church together. Leaders, if you would like to attend camp as a cabin leader for your group, you can do so by applying to volunteer at camp.

What safety protocols are in place?

Your child’s safety is our #1 priority! All staff go through a thorough interview process, including reference checks and background checks. Camps have nurses on-site as well as strong relationships with local emergency responders in the rare case that your child needs medical attention. We follow all standards put forth by the NH Department of Health and Human Services for student-to-counselor ratios, staff qualifications, safety, and more.

What are the housing arrangements?

At Camp Monadnock, campers stay in dorm-style accommodations that range in size from six to 18 campers per dorm. We try to room campers with others who are in or around the same grade, though we also accommodate roommate requests and church groups as needed. All of our camp weeks are age-specific (e.g. elementary school only, jr/sr high only), so you can rest assured your child will be housed with other campers around the same stage of development. 

Are all meals included? What kind of food will be served?

No one goes hungry at Camp Monadnock! Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are included, and we serve plenty of food to keep campers fueled for the day’s adventures. A variety of options are available at every meal, so your child is sure to find something they love! Snacks and frappes are also available for purchase at the camp store.

If your child has allergies or dietary restrictions, there is a place to share this during the registration process, and we work very hard to accommodate these. Our chefs are all ServSafe certified.

What are the drop-off and pick-up times for Camp Monadnock?

Drop-off is Sunday afternoon and pick-up is Thursday evening.

What is a typical day like at Camp Monadnock?

Camp Monadnock days focus on time together and taking their next steps spiritually. After breakfast, the day starts with time in the Word. For teens, this is a large-group devotion time followed by small-group discussions. Kids start their day with chapel, which is jam-packed with singing, games, and Bible teaching. 

After morning devotions, campers head off to Tribe Time, a rotation of fun activities they experience with their cabin groups—think things like archery, arts and crafts, wagon rides, climbing tower, and a challenge course.

Following lunch, free time afternoons are filled with swimming, hanging out at the beach by the pond, and spending time with new friends at Hillside, the spot for socializing over snacks and ice cream, playing games, and crafting.

After dinner, teens have their primary chapel time, as well as a large group activity and small group discussion times. Kids gather for stories around the campfire, an evening snack, and devotionals with their cabin groups. 

When it’s time for lights out, happily tired campers retreat to their dorm to dream of all the fun they’ve had and rest up for another day of nonstop adventure! 

How will my child learn about the Bible?

Each day at camp includes group chapel times with worship and Bible teaching, time for small group discussion and application, and dedicated Christian staff members speaking personally into the lives of campers. We welcome and accept campers at every stage of their faith journey. Our camps are highly invitational, encouraging campers to think about God, life’s big questions, and what their next steps of faith might be in the safety of an authentic community.

Can I bring a group?

Yes! Fill out a simple form telling us about your estimated number of campers and if your church will be paying all or some of their registration fees (we will set up a discount code for your campers if so).
