Hello, World!
Welcome to Camp Chatawa!
Ages 2nd-9th grade
SUMMER OF 2026 SESSIONS
Session 1: June 14th-19th
Session 2: June 28th - July 3rd
Since 2021, Camp Chatawa has been a place where faith comes alive and friendships grow deep! Inspired by Father Mark Beard’s vision and surrounded by the beauty of Our Lady of Hope Catholic Retreat Center, Camp Chatawa is more than just a camp — it’s a summer experience that invites you to encounter Jesus, explore His creation, and have an absolute blast doing it!
Every summer, over 50 amazing staff members and hundreds of campers come together for a week filled with faith, fun, and unforgettable memories. Guided by our Catholic faith, we create a space where everyone can grow to know, love, and serve God and one another. Here, we lift each other up, celebrate our unique, God-given gifts, and learn how to be leaders—on and off the field!
From sunrise prayers to sunset songs, every day is packed with excitement: hiking, water hikes, canoeing, paddle boating, reflection / prayerful moments with visiting priests and sisters, arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor games, and relaxing at our swimming oasis. You’ll also find us celebrating themed days—like Glow Party Night, and more! Each session begins and ends with camper /staff Holy Mass. There is also a camper performance for family and friends on Friday.
Registration includes room and board, two camp shirts (one to tie-dye!), and access to all our amazing activities.
At Camp Chatawa, we believe that when you open your heart to God, adventure follows. You’ll laugh, grow, pray, play, and leave with new friends and a faith that feels stronger than ever.
We can’t wait to welcome you to the Camp Chatawa family — where every day is a new opportunity to live with joy, serve with love, and shine with the light of Christ.
Join us this summer and discover what happens when faith and fun meet!
Love in Christ,
Jessica Fayard St. Cyr - Director
