Friendship Camp is a week for adults with developmental disabilities to express joy, create friendships, embrace nature, and worship God. Surrounded by our loving staff, Friendship Campers experience fellowship, relaxation, and all around camp fun. Join us in a community of loving individuals, all who recognize and celebrate that everyone is a child of God.  

Meals

Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, our Kitchen Team works hard to provide incredibly nutritious and delicious food. Served family style, meals are eaten together as cabin groups. A copy of the menu will be sent out the week before camp starts and SBJs (sunflower seed butter and jelly) are an alternate option for every meal. Westminster Woods accommodates a vegetarian diet but we strongly encourage campers to bring their own food supplements for any other dietary needs.

Morning Town Meeting

After breakfast, Friendship Camp gathers on the Big Green Field for a time of singing and announcements. Our musically gifted staff leads the camp in a series of classic songs before the floor is opened for campers to make their own announcements.

Rotations

Campers rotate between different activities that are tailored to their interests. Example activities include crafts at the craft shack, volleyball, and creating camp booklets. Campers get to interact with one another while engaging in entertaining activities.  

Quiet Cabin Time (FOB)

At Friendship camp, we give campers ample rest time in their cabins. Whether they nap, color, or rest in their bunks, quiet cabin time serves as a calming and quiet change of pace and time to recharge. 

Free Time

Campers can choose to spend Free Time at the pool, Craft Shack, playing games at the Big Green Field, and dancing to music in The Homestead. Campers are free to switch amongst Free Time activities at their heart’s desire. 

Evening Event

Whether it is our annual parade, dance party, or talent show, our evening events encourage campers to celebrate being at camp with one another. Campers express joy and solidify friendships through the fun evening atmosphere.

Evening Town Meeting

At the end of the day, Friendship Camp gathers on the Big Green Field for a time of singing and announcements. Our musically gifted staff leads the camp in a series of classic songs before the floor is opened for campers to make their own announcements.
