Yet camp is more than just a memory! The spirit of camp extends beyond the boundaries of any one summer… spanning generations of caring alumni who ‘remember the times’ they had here. Alumni Camp for adults 18 and over who were previous campers, parents, volunteers, counselors, staff, or anyone who think camp is a blast!

Come Visit!
Pine Creek is a privately owned camp run by the Indiana Conference of the United Methodist Church. During the Spring, Summer and Fall season we are open to retreat groups, custom camps and Impact camps. We strive to teach youth and families about Christ and develop relationships with each other and God. Due to our nature of work Pine Creek is closed to the public. However, once a year we open our gates and allow any who wish to see our site to visit us and check out our facilities.
This year our dates coincide with Pine Village’s community events and we hope you will add us to your list of places to stop at while out and about! We will have zorb balls running for anyone to check out. Don’t know what zorbing is? All the more reason to stop by and check it out. We will also be giving guided tours of the grounds and camp staff will be on-site to answer any questions you may have.
As we get closer to the date more information will be posted about the day’s activities and any other relevant information you may need to know.
