Outriders
Camp 2026
The best week of your summer starts here.
What is an
Outrider?
In the Old West, outriders rode ahead of and alongside the herd. They scouted the terrain, guarded against danger, and helped guide others safely home. They weren’t spectators—they were alert, intentional, and entrusted with responsibility.
Spiritually, we believe God is calling students to live as outriders. Young men and women who know who they are in Christ, understand they were intentionally formed by God, and are willing to walk in the good works He has already prepared for them.
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” – Ephesians 2:10
Best Week of Your
Summer.
Student Camp is our week-long sleep away camp experience for students just completing 6th–12th grade. Hundreds of students and leaders travel up to central Florida to participate in crazy games, amazing worship and powerful Biblical teaching.
Students will grow in their faith, build amazing friendships, and experience some crazy fun! Student Camp will no doubt be their favorite week of the summer!
