Our Mission
Our mission is to create an experience that you can’t get in the cul-de-sac. Camp Kerusso adventures involve a broad range of activities, including archery, laser tag, gaga ball, fishing, mini golf, blob, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking...and more! It is our goal to create a safe environment where adventure, sports, and recreation facilitate lifelong friendships and an opportunity for kids to discover what it means to have a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Each day campers will need to bring sunscreen, a refillable water bottle, and lunch (except Friday). While lifejackets are provided, we HIGHLY encourage your camper to bring their own. Make sure that your campers name is on everything he/she brings to camp.

SUMMER 2021 UPDATE: Unfortunately there will be NO shared food items this summer, which means NO Pizza Friday. Instead, tuition will include a $2 canteen credit.

Gift of Camp:
We would love to provide the opportunity for some children to experience camp who otherwise would not have the opportunity. If you feel led to give, please indicate the amount when registering. Any amount is appreciated. Click here if you are interested.
Special Needs:
Although we desire to accommodate all children, we, unfortunately are not able to accommodate children who are unable to function within our camp/group structure. Please call Hannah Laible (678) 575 7391 with any questions.
PLEASE EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION when driving through the neighborhood on your way to and from Camp Kerusso. Out of consideration for our camp's neighbors, we kindly request everyone to drive slowly and more cautiously through the neighborhood as you approach and leave camp. There are many kids that play in the neighborhood and we value their safety, too! Thank you so much for your cooperation
