Join us each Spring and Fall for four days and three nights of fellowship, worship, fantastic Bible teaching, and quiet strolls on some of Camp's trails.  Geared for folks ages 55 and over, the Senior Retreat is a wonderful way to reconnect with old friends . . . and make a few new ones along the way!  All denominations are welcome.  Camp’s “senior friendly” facilities (e.g. elevator, handicap accommodations, helpful staff) make it possible for most everyone to enjoy a visit.  You'll leave having laughed a lot, and more importantly, with your walk with Christ encouraged.

One of Camp Lebanon's most blessed events, Senior Day is a semi-annual gathering of hundreds of senior aged saints.  They come to enjoy wonderful singing, inspirational Bible teaching, delicious food, joyful fellowship, and a special guest artist.  The only problem with this day is that it is over all too quickly.
