More than just a camp.
The Pines offers a unique overnight summer camp experience that lasts from Sunday afternoon through Saturday morning. We have fun camp games and songs, plenty of activities to try, and lots of opportunities to meet new lifelong friends. Where we differ from other camps is in our genuine Catholic identity. We offer opportunities to grow in faith all through the beauty of the Sacraments.
What camper families are saying:
What really sets this apart is that it is a solid Catholic environment that enriches their faith while they have fun. The counselors are a spirit filled bunch of college students, and we've come to recognize several who have been there again and again.

Seven years we have sent at least one child to The Pines and it never ceases to amaze me how this camp makes sure everyone has a fantastic time, a deeply spiritual growth experience, and so much fun every time they go. The camp uses the gifts of The Church - Mass, Reconciliation, Adoration, The Saints, etc to help all that attend to embrace their faith. The counselors are top notch, the future of our Church. Catholic life at its best!
— Susanna E
Both my children were in Water Village last week. This was the first sleep away camp for both. My daughter was ready for us to leave. My son was already homesick but the compassion his counselor showed towards him warmed my heart and I knew he would be just fine. We hadn't even left yesterday after pickup when both were pleading for me to please let them come back next year. Both have done nothing but praise all of the counselors and raved about how much fun they both had. Thank you for being such a wonderful experience for my babies. It was a joy to see pictures and videos of them having fun all week. It looks as if The Pines is now part of our summer!
