Additional Information About Intro-Res Camp

Below, you’ll find the basic schedule of Intro-Res Camp. It's helpful for parents and campers to talk through it before heading to HoneyRock.

After breakfast, campers have the opportunity to engage in God's Word together with their cabin groups. 

We eat family style at HoneyRock! You’ll come into the Dining Hall as a cabin and sit around a table with your cabin.

With 14 activity areas, it’s tough to be bored! During Intro Camp, campers jump from activity to activity as a cabin and experience most, if not all, of the activity areas. Some activities, such as waterskiing, horsemanship and ceramics are not offered as activity options for Intro Campers. Instead, Intro Campers will be able to visit the horses and play games in the barn, go on a boat ride and visit the craft barn.

Cabin leaders prepare fun, interactive lessons to bring God’s Word to life, challenging and encouraging camper’s walk with Christ.

Every cabin goes on a Moonlight adventure! Campers will have the opportunity to hike or canoe with their cabin to one of our nearby campfire locations, to enjoy an evening around the fire and under the stars. We see this cabin time in God's beautiful creation as an important part of their camp experience!

This is structured “free time” – visit the Beehive, play a game, visit the waterfront...the opportunities are endless!
