Summer Camp
2025 Summer Teaching Focus
His Glory, Our Good (Romans 8)
Pre-Summer Bible Study
We’ve prepped a 7-day Romans Bible study that covers the first seven chapters of Paul’s letter. It’s a great way to help get your students ready to hear teaching on Romans 8 at SWO25 — so they can get the most out of their time at SWO.

Summer CAmp Recreation
Every aspect of Snowbird’s 10 camp weeks focuses on challenging and encouraging students with the Gospel of Jesus Christ — by any means necessary!
SWO Summer removes students from their comfort zones and provides a fresh, new perspective of Christ’s life, Scripture and the necessity of Biblical community and discipleship.
Is this your first time joining Snowbird’s summer or missions camp? We’re here to help make the transition simple and easy. Check out the notes below and call us at (828)321-2210 any time!

Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters exists to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the exposition of Scripture and personal relationships in order to equip the Church to impact this generation. This Gospel-driven mission is what every one of our retreats is focused on.

What does a week of camp at Snowbird look like?
A week at camp includes solid biblical teaching, Gospel-focused worship, high-adventure recreation, and small groups with your best friends.
What recreation do you provide?
The scheduled recreation during the summer includes any of our on-campus or off-campus recreations of your choosing! Click the link below to see what high-adventure recreation we offer!
What types of housing do you provide?
We have over 14 cabins on our campus, divided by bedrooms for each group. They each provide twin-sized bunk beds, air conditioning, and heat. Our cleaning team takes great pride in keeping things clean but the buildings are primarily functional.
You’ll need to provide your own bedding, pillow, and towels. One of our 4 bathhouses is just a short walk from each cabin.
How many chaperones does my group need to bring?
SWO requires a minimum of a 1:10 chaperone to student ratio. If you are bringing both guys and girls to camp, you will need chaperones of each gender to attend as well.
How do I add or drop additional spots to my group?
You can add additional spots to your group as long as the retreat is not full. The best way to find out is to open your Snowbird Account and see if there are any remaining spots open for the retreat. However, you’ll want to only register spots that you’re certain you’ll need. The deposit is non-refundable.
Check our Registration Guide for details on how to invite specific students to your group via email.
