Gardom Lake Bible Camp hosts summer day, overnight and Encounter wilderness camps at its Gardom Lake property, 651 Glenmary Road in the Enderby area of British Columbia. The schedules below are historical 2026 programs, not confirmed 2027 dates. Main Camp and Encounter share the same property; this listing combines both with the regular day camp.

Boys Adventure and Girls Adventure have the stated gender restrictions; other programs should not be assumed to share those restrictions.
2026 regular day camp serves ages 6–9 on weekdays from July 6 through August 28, except July 29–31 during the staff break. Drop-off is 8:45–9 a.m. and pickup is 4 p.m. Families may book individual days or a full week; advance registration is encouraged. These regular day-camp hours should not be assumed to apply to the Exhilarate hybrid option.
Activities vary by age and program and include swimming, canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, archery, climbing, zipline, crafts, games and outdoor exploration. Encounter themes add wilderness survival and outdoor cooking; Aim emphasizes target activities including paintball, reball and laser tag; Teen Venture includes hiking, climbing and whitewater rafting; Girls Adventure includes horseback riding; Teen Rush includes zipline, climbing, paintball and BMX; Teen H2O includes rafting, floating and natural waterslides. Paintball and whitewater rafting require a parent-signed waiver before participation.
For standard Sunday-start Main and Encounter camps, registration is 4–4:30 p.m.; campers should arrive no more than 30 minutes early and must be accompanied by an adult. Standard Friday pickup is 2 p.m., except Squirt and Encounter 101 finish Wednesday at 2 p.m. and Pee Wee finishes Friday at 4 p.m. Confirm Pee Wee’s Thursday arrival time directly. Closed-toe shoes are required. Food is prohibited except for medical reasons; phones, other electronics and knives are not permitted.
The numeric ages on this listing combine several distinct programs; the exact age, date and gender rules above determine eligibility. Junior Staff and leadership programs are not included because their dated summer eligibility still requires verification. Consult the official website for current availability, registration, health requirements and future schedules.
