Family Camp has a lot of goals!
It’s a chance to spend time together as a family, have fun, grow closer to God, experience camp in a low pressure environment, meet other families, relive camp days of yore, build new memories…the list goes on and on! We are excited to welcome back longtime Lutherwoodians and introduce new people to this beautiful, “best kept secret” in western Washington!
