Father/Son Weekend
In April 2011, Camp Rockmont hosted its first ever Father/Son Weekend. It was a great success, with great fun and special moments that strengthened the bond between fathers and sons. Everyone had a blast just being at camp, however the real gift for both fathers and sons was the opportunity to spend time together. Favorites like blacksmithing, riflery, climbing, and archery are just some of the available skills. You will also be able to enjoy camp classics like disc golf, the blob, gulleywasher, canoes, and zipline. Fathers will have time to discuss common themes in raising and developing Godly young men.
This time, we will be offering two weekends for you to choose from!
