What is Express Camp?
Express camp offers all the same fun and activities as any camp but in a shorter time frame! Instead of a traditional 5 night stay we shorter the time to only 3 nights!

The Gospel Message
As our campers grow we want to keep engaging them in new and exciting ways. During this week of camp children will participate in fun worship times with games and activities. Not only that but they will learn about the love God has for them and how they can spread that love outside of camp. The goal of this week is to have campers learn how God works around them and how to identify God in their day-to-day life.

What is Horse Camp?
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. This camp is express style meaning it is a shorter camp time than normal. Instead of 6 days, 5 nights you only spend 4 days and 3 nights! Great for those with limited summer availability. Have all the same fun but in a shorter time span!
The 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 and personal devotions 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
- And other camp favorites
All Skill Levels Welcome

What is Elementary Camp?
Glad you asked! Elementary Camp is a traditional Christ centered overnight camping experience for elementary students grades 3rd – 5th. Campers will enjoy everything good about being outside, like campfires, to fun activities you can only get at camp, like giant swing!

Goliath Swing – David fought off his fear of Goliath and was triumphant) Not only this but each day offers times of worship and devotions that will engage each camper with God and allow them to discover something new about Him.

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.
