Let the Journey begin! Explorer Programs form the foundation of the Summer Journey Series. Explorers develop curiosity, calculate risk, and learn to trust themselves and others. The result is self-confidence and a strong identity. Explorers will investigate and become comfortable in nature and learn the skills they will need to be ready for the Discoverer, Adventurer, and Navigator Programs. All Explorers will stay at our beautiful 650-acre main campus and enjoy a week of worship, art, canoeing, hiking, swimming, and games.
