Camp Information
We are delighted that you will be spending a week with us at Camp Longridge. We trust that you will have great fun, make wonderful memories, and build lasting relationships with people in our group. However, be reminded that first priorities are that you grow in your relationship with your Savior and honor him in the way that you behave, act, and speak.
Spending Money
There is a canteen and gift shop that will be open during camp. Items such as snacks, refreshments, and souvenirs can be purchased there. The recommended amount for the week is $40. Spending money must be added on the Camp Longridge website for the canteen.
Cell Phone Policy
Campers are not allowed to use cell phones or any other media/gaming device while at camp (This is camp policy.) To help your child get the best camp experience we want them to focus on their relationship with God and others at camp and not the media.
Cell service is also very limited at Camp Longridge. Incoming and outgoing calls from our office landline are reserved primarily for medical and/or emergency reasons.
Behavior and Respect
We have an awesome group of kids going and we expect great behavior from them. We will allow you as their parents to handle any issues that may come up on your drive back home with your child. If this issue was to arrive no refund will be given.

Camp Longridge will have first aid and CPR certified staff on-site. An EMS station is conveniently located two miles from camp. In case of an emergency, please call 866-966-9805.

If your child needs medication during camp:
Camp Longridge staff and/or camper’s church leaders will routinely administer PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS ONLY. Please keep medication in the original package that identifies the prescribing doctor.
