C.H.I.P.S. is a leadership program where campers will stay at camp for two weeks instead of one. The first week is similar to other camps, with the addition of lessons and exercises in leadership. From team building to selflessly serving others, campers will learn and practice how to be effective leaders. C.H.I.P.S. campers will have an opportunity to experience and visit other camp programs (Wilderness, Lodge, Day Camp) and get to see how camp works behind the scenes. In the second week, C.H.I.P.S. have the opportunity to co-lead a bunk group alongside a counselor!


Due to the nature of this program, each C.H.I.P.S. camper will go through an interview process to determine if C.H.I.P.S. is the right camp for your camper. When registering, your camper will be placed on a waitlist until the interview. After the interview process, the program team will decide on the acceptance of the camper into the program. You will not be charged until a decision is made.


**Please note, High School Camp is also an option for those who aren't interested in or accepted into this program**

What to Expect

LEARNING TO LEAD

In this first week of CHIPS, campers are experiencing all that camp has to offer! They engage in chapels, teambuilders, games, activities, bible studies, the list goes on! This is pretty normal for all campers. However in the CHIPS program an emphasis is placed on leaderhip and serving. The CHIPS engage in leadership lessons and opportunities throughout this first week as well as the opportunity to serve in different areas throughout camp. Some of these things include running the canteen, caring for trails, and looking after the lodge.

Weekends are spent at camp as well! CHIPS get out and serve on Saturday as they go on a serve day with a local non-profit and meet some of the needs they have. On Sunday the CHIPS go to church together and get ready for the next week!

BECOMING A LEADER

This week is unique to CHIPS as they become junior counselors! CHIPS are paired with a camp counselor by their coordinators based off of who would work well and be able to disciple their junior counselor. CHIPS walk alongside their counselor to lead their bunk group together in bible studies, activies and the like! This is an amazing opportunity to get a glimpse into what it is like to work here at camp and lead those beside you.

Their final day they say goodbye to the hills and their fellow CHIPS who have now become a family.

  • Where do I drop off my camper?

    Drop off for all overnight camps is at the main lodge! There will be staff to guide you through the process!

  • Can my camper have their phone?

    At Inspiration Hills, we encourage our campers to fully unplug. Please, have your camper give you their phone. Phones will be confiscated and placed in a secure location until the end of the week. 

    During the weekend, CHIPS will receive their phone for some time to connect with family and loved ones before heading into the next week.

    A CHIP is one willing to serve, has been to camp before, a follower of Christ and a spirit to jump into whatever their week holds! These are not requirements, but attributes of a CHIPS. Not all CHIPS need to meet every qualifications.
