The Bible is filled with great lessons drawn from nature. From the first chapter of Genesis and throughout the Bible, God intentionally uses His creation to teach about Himself and His truths. The purpose of Camp Lone Star’s Outdoor Education program is to partner with schools to create a Christ-centered, creation-focused, interactive camp experience to plant seeds of faith and cultivate Christian leaders in their school. Our goal is to partner with you to create a retreat experience that meets the needs of you and your students.

Session Duration:

We can accommodate schools or groups for a one, two, or three night stay. Outdoor Education groups receive a 20% discount off the standard camp fees.
