Camp Champion, hosted each summer at Lubbock Christian University, is an immersive camp that emphasizes spiritual values and self-esteem for students in middle school. This year, 193 campers participated.
Camp Champion follows an over-arching theme that campers explore through activities, interactive classes, devotionals, and entertainment. The theme for 2016 was “Kingdomsend.” Campers experienced LCU as an imaginary post-apocalyptic world, stylizing the theme as “Kingdoms End.” Beginning from breakfast, or the themed “ration distribution,” their goal each day was to find a cure for the fallen humankind and create a new world. However, as the week went on, campers learned that the Kingdom of God is with them already and that they should share the good news: “Kingdom Send.”
In addition to lessons, campers participated in team building and game activities with their “factions,” assigned groups named in keeping with the post-apocalyptic theme. Campers had the opportunity to visit two Lubbock amusement parks: Joyland and Water Rampage. They also heard a performance by Fellow American, a band of LCU alumni.
LCU annually hosts camps like Champion, Encounter, and more during the summer months.
