We are returning to Hotel San Gil del Campo, located in San Gil, Santander, Colombia, between Bucaramanga and Bogotá.

The cost of the camp will run U.S. $250 per person, which does not include airfare and transportation to and from the camp. Arrival from international areas by airline is possible from the El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá. There is no tuition fee for staff. Partial scholarship for staff airfare may be available.

Adults who are 18 or older and are a high school graduate are encouraged to apply as staff. We are looking for mature, energetic and engaging staff whose priority is serving the needs of the campers. This camp is for bilingual or Spanish-speaking attendees only.

Last year, we had an attendance of 19 campers from Colombia and Venezuela with a full array of Bible discussions or Christian living classes, song leading training, swimming, fútbol (soccer), volleyball, a dance, amazing race, a visit to PANACHI—Parque Nacional del Chicamocha, Bible skits and plenty of free time to relax and fellowship, including the sought-after mid-afternoon siesta.

We plan to have many of the same activities. Each day will include an interactive compass check. Additional question-and-answer sessions (focusing on biblical and Christian living topics) will also be offered. Along with several fun and challenging activities, extra time for fellowship and relaxation is added to make this camp experience a treat. Free time to enjoy talking with friends, old and new, is one of Colombia’s experiences that lasts a lifetime.

If you are interested in attending please contact Scott Hoefker.
