High School Classic
(entering grades 9-12)

All programs are individual and church group friendly. That means that you can come by yourself, with a few friends, or in a church block. If you want to bring your youth pastor to join in the fun, that’s great! We’ll provide all the counseling or work alongside your church staff to provide the best experience for each camper.

Santa Cruz Mountains
Ponderosa Lodge continues to be home to our showcase residential programs for high schoolers. A premier high school facility complete with ropes, playfields, courts, skatepark, paintball, disc golf, The Forum, The Fountain, a sacred space, the garden and more. It’s a great place to hang out, but close enough to hike or bike to the beach or boardwalk. Sometimes we pray, sometimes we play, sometimes we go serve the poor of Santa Cruz, sometimes we just talk with counselors who can help us figure out how our faith works out in our lives. The speakers and musicians couldn’t be better, but the small groups and counselors are crucial to making the message real.
