Summer Camps

OVERVIEW:

Triple-R Ranch, a 370 acre working ranch in southern Chesapeake VA,has just the right programs for boys and girls, as well as teenagers. Triple-R offers a time proven quality program perfect for your child's summer camp experience.

Begun in 1960, Triple-R has served many thousands of children, offering the same quality, Christian camping experience year after year. Summer Staff are recruited from colleges far and wide, based on their Christian Commitment and their desire to have a positive impact in the life and faith of their campers.  These well trained staff help campers learn new skills and develop friendships while encouraging them through every part of the camp experience.  A vital part of camp is our Bible time where counselors help campers to understand God's love and apply His word to their lives.

Whether your camper mounts up for a horseback ride, launches a canoe for a glide down the Northwest river, tests their skill at archery and riflery, or just takes a stroll through our acres of woodlands, they'll be sure to discover the excitement of the Triple-R when they attend one of our summer camps.
