Camp Adventure’s Impact Camps provide a classic camp experience, featuring action-packed adventures including: swimming, blobbing, paintball, low ropes, and high ropes. Most importantly, there is a deep focus on Christ through an amazing spiritual program including small groups, modern worship and opportunities to ask the tough questions about God.
Clear Gospel Message
At Camp Adventure, we teach and explore the gospel with students through worship, stories, small group discussions, and feature activities. Each week has a different speaker and spiritual director to lead the students to a real and intimate relationship with our Savior. In Summer 2019, our curriculum is focused on knowing and being known by God with an even greater emphasis on teaching campers practical skills on how to continue that pursuit when they leave camp.
Camp Worship
Praise can be expressed in many different ways, therefore, we like to help campers become inspired by the Holy Spirit’s movement during different worship times throughout the week. Each week brings a new worship team to lead students to give their all to our Creator. Lookout Lodge, which also doubles as the dining room, turns into a sacred worship space with high-tech lighting and dynamically led music.
Campers also have the opportunity to worship through exploring nature on our vast acreage, meeting in small groups, navigating through the Bible, and encouraging one another through activities like the low and high ropes courses.

Event Details
That Thing at Epworth Forest is a summer conference camp for high school students to come together in pursuit of Christ being lived out in their communities. There’s a ton of fun here but more importantly, this camp is about sending students out to put love and action into the root of their daily lives back at home.
Hundreds of students will be on site each week from ninth grade through graduating seniors. Students get some supervised free time to explore recreation areas in groups, choose from different Creative Labs, grab snack at the Beach House, and relax in their lodge common rooms.
Camp Worship
At the core of That Thing is a passion for creating expressive and interactive worship spaces that draw on multiple learning styles to help students engage with the gospel and finding their own rhythm and connection with God. Bands and speakers spend time connecting with students throughout the day as well as on stage. Counselors and leaders help students through small group discussions in meeting new friends and unpacking the experiences of the week.

For students who come from churches where leaders aren’t able to attend or there aren’t enough students to get group lodging, we’ve created intentional spaces and opportunities to come and experience That Thing. These experiences are for students (roommate request’s available) who enjoy meeting lots of new people. Everyone in the cabin will probably only know 1-3 other people. There are no concerns, everything is taken care of from the fun to worship.
That Thing’s Campus House Counselors plan development time for students to connect, get to know one another and open up throughout the week. The experience is about connecting them with each other so that as a created community they can support, encourage and challenge one another in Christ during that week.
Students in the Campus Houses get to experience everything That Thing has to offer. They still get the individual freedoms in what activites they plunge into and where they spend their time as they can pick and choose activities and experiences perfect for their likes and styles.
The Campus House is the best option for students coming to camp individually; church leaders are invited and encouraged to come be counselors, contact us for counseling info.

How is Horse Camp Different?
Horse camp is very similar to a traditional camp experience with meals, cabins, and worship. However, two thirds of horse camper’s activity time is spent in the Barn learning basic animal husbandry and riding skills. The nature of this camp is to give campers a normal camp experience with a focus on Horse care and riding. Have all the same fun but with horses too!
Clear Gospel Message
Horse campers get to experience one of the most beautiful creatures God created in a close and personal setting. During training, campers learn how God cares for all of his creation big and small. This along with regular camp worship times, devotional activities, and big events like Station night, allows campers to grow closer to God and develop a personal relationship with Christ.
Experience
- Residential Horse Camp
- Equine Safety
- Western Riding Approach
- Barn Operations
- Horse Care
- Tack Identification
- Along with Traditional Camp activities
All Skill Levels Welcome
- Little to no experience with horses is needed. Introductory horse lovers will find a welcoming and encouraging space to interact with and build comfort with horses as you progress from foundation to advanced skills regardless of age.
- Long Time & Experienced Riders will find a great experience discovering more about horses and participating in peer leadership throughout the event as they strengthen and further develop their skills.
- Horses will be provided. Let your horse enjoy a small vacation staying at home this week while you get to discover a new relationship with a new equine friend at camp.

Event Details
That Thing at Epworth Forest is a summer conference camp for high school students to come together in pursuit of Christ being lived out in their communities. There’s a ton of fun here but more importantly, this camp is about sending students out to put love and action into the root of their daily lives back at home.
Hundreds of students will be on site each week from ninth grade through graduating seniors. Students get some supervised free time to explore recreation areas in groups, choose from different Creative Labs, grab snack at the Beach House, and relax in their lodge common rooms.
Camp Worship
At the core of That Thing is a passion for creating expressive and interactive worship spaces that draw on multiple learning styles to help students engage with the gospel and finding their own rhythm and connection with God. Bands and speakers spend time connecting with students throughout the day as well as on stage. Counselors and leaders help students through small group discussions in meeting new friends and unpacking the experiences of the week.
Recreation & Activities
Beach Waterfront | Aqua Rocker | Canoes | Swimming | Swurfer Swings | Sports Courts | GaGa Pit
Keynote Speaker
The keynoter for this week is:
- Ricky Ortiz – Pastor Ricky Ortiz lives on the Upper East Side of Manhattan along with his wife, Krista, and daughter, Gia. He’s the founding and lead pastor of Meta Church [metachurch.cc], a brand new church plant in the heart of New York City. He’s passionate about communicating God’s Word with relevance and authenticity so people can connect with who God is and the purpose He has for their lives.
Worship Band
The worship band for this week is:
- Modern Day Cure – Modern Day Cure is a worship band led by Aaron and Tamar Chipp. Based in Nashville, TN the married-duo’s heart is to exalt Jesus, share His truth, and see people changed by His power. Their name is inspired by Hebrews 13:8, which states, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” This truth makes Him the modern day cure. They believe Jesus is the answer the world needs today.

For students who come from churches where leaders aren’t able to attend or there aren’t enough students to get group lodging, we’ve created intentional spaces and opportunities to come and experience That Thing. These experiences are for students (roommate request’s available) who enjoy meeting lots of new people. Everyone in the cabin will probably only know 1-3 other people. There are no concerns, everything is taken care of from the fun to worship.
That Thing’s Campus House Counselors plan development time for students to connect, get to know one another and open up throughout the week. The experience is about connecting them with each other so that as a created community they can support, encourage and challenge one another in Christ during that week.
Students in the Campus Houses get to experience everything That Thing has to offer. They still get the individual freedoms in what activites they plunge into and where they spend their time as they can pick and choose activities and experiences perfect for their likes and styles.
The Campus House is the best option for students coming to camp individually; church leaders are invited and encouraged to come be counselors, contact us for counseling info.
Volunteer info can be found here…

Camp Adventure’s Impact Camps provide a classic camp experience, featuring action-packed adventures including: swimming, blobbing, paintball, low ropes, and high ropes. Most importantly, there is a deep focus on Christ through an amazing spiritual program including small groups, modern worship and opportunities to ask the tough questions about God.
Clear Gospel Message
At Camp Adventure, we teach and explore the gospel with students through worship, stories, small group discussions, and feature activities. Each week has a different speaker and spiritual director to lead the students to a real and intimate relationship with our Savior. In Summer 2019, our curriculum is focused on knowing and being known by God with an even greater emphasis on teaching campers practical skills on how to continue that pursuit when they leave camp.
Camp Worship
Praise can be expressed in many different ways, therefore, we like to help campers become inspired by the Holy Spirit’s movement during different worship times throughout the week. Each week brings a new worship team to lead students to give their all to our Creator. Lookout Lodge, which also doubles as the dining room, turns into a sacred worship space with high-tech lighting and dynamically led music.
Campers also have the opportunity to worship through exploring nature on our vast acreage, meeting in small groups, navigating through the Bible, and encouraging one another through activities like the low and high ropes courses.

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.
