CAMP WOW

'Wonders of Worship' that’s what the WOW stands for.

In the summer of 1997 CAMP WOW began with one camp and four Catholic parishes from the Fox River Valley. In 2007 there will be four separate camps run by 14 Catholic churches from the Rockford and Joliet Dioceses as well as the Chicago Archdiocese.

In the summer of 2007, St. Patrick Catholic Church (St. Charles) will join with St. Gall (Elburn) and Our Lady of Victory (Chicago). Together they will run CAMP WOW 11.4 which will take place June 29th thru July 2nd at Dickson Valley Camp and Retreat Center near Sandwich, Illinois.

So what is CAMP WOW. It's a summer camp, a 4 day retreat all rolled into one. Camp activities such as swimming, canoeing, biking, archery, paddle boat, open gym with rock climbing wall. Also included are arts and crafts and other outdoor activities such as ultimate frisbee and a new GPS course.

The camp include a totally Catholic theme, catechesis, and include the celebration of the sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist. Other staples of the camp are Wacky Olympics, campfire/hay ride, and the infamous No Talent Show. Add in 3 great meals and 2 snacks each day, and 14 amazing talks given by the trained High School counselors, this 4 day and 3 night journey is filled with faith building fun, knowledge, and excitement.

Registration opens September 15th as is on a first come-first served basis until full. Contact your Youth Minister or Parish representative for complete information. Their names and contact numbers are included in the CAMP WOW 11.4 Registration Packet that will be posted on September 15th.
