Columbia River Family Geology Camps
Next camp: June 13-17, 2022! Register here!
Because we know you are concerned about how Covid 19 would impact the camps, we have been speaking with the hosts at Peniel Ranch. They are committed to creating a safe environment for all to be able to attend and have a wonderful time. Please see more specifics below.*
Imagine sitting with your family and friends under the starry sky, with the sound of the Columbia River as your backdrop. It is at times like this that deep questions are asked, and life directions are often set.
Located amidst the peaks and plateaus of the Okanogan country on the banks of the Columbia, Peniel Ranch is the perfect place to bring the whole family for a vacation you won’t soon forget! And this is the location for the Columbia River Family Geology Camp, where you can expect to have a wonderful family vacation, built around studying and experiencing the geology of the area from a Biblical perspective.
Join us June 13-17 for our next camp. The theme for this summer’s camp is: Rocks, minerals, dinosaurs, volcanoes, history, and…Apologetics!
Patrick Nurre of Northwest Treasures, Geology, will be your teacher and host for this fun and enriching time together, as we discover how to defend Genesis through Geological Apologetics! Not only will we help equip you to be effective in interacting with our culture using the book of Genesis, but we will address questions like:
- Was the Genesis Flood a real historical event?
- How did the Genesis Flood impact our culture, our Earth, and our environment?
- What does the Genesis Flood have to do with issues of morality?
- How does Genesis explain extinction and issues like Global Warming and the disappearance of so many plants and animals?
And we will enjoy activities like:
- Rock identification in the field
- Fossil dig project
- Fluorescent rock demonstration
- Fascinating evening talks on creation, the Flood, and geology
- Kayaking, swimming, paddle boarding, cart races, pony rides, archery, ping pong, and so much more!
- Time and restrictions permitting, we may make a side trip to Dry Falls, the Scablands/Missoula Flood area, and/or the Columbia Flood basalts.
Cost for this budget-minded adventure includes:
