CAMPER GRADE – The grades for camps listed represent the grade campers will be going into for the next school year. To offer campers and families more options when selecting a week of camp, we have expanded the camp sessions to include an age range to permit campers a grade above or below the listed grade level to attend. Select the camp session that works best.

SUMMER STAFF - Our summer staff are typically college-aged students from Mennonite Colleges and Universities. All staff are part of a week of orientation in which skills and procedures are reviewed in caring and serving campers of all ages. Training is focused on the well-being of all campers to ensure their physical and emotional safety while at camp. All hike leaders receive Wilderness First Aid training and climbing supervisors and instructors (for rock climbing/rappelling activities) take part in a two day training course led by a certified instructor.

SCHOLARSHIPS - Scholarship Funds are available to help cover registration and coordinated transportation fees from Kansas and Colorado Springs. Please contact the Executive Director, Corbin Graber, by phone (719-687-9506) or email (corbin@rmmc.org).

PAYMENTS – Payment options available though online registration include payment in full, $50 non-refundable deposit w/ remaining balance due at camp, or $50 non-refundable deposit and remaining balance in monthly installments. We accept cash, checks or credit cards.
