Camp Cedar Cliff Day Camp (Rising K-5th)

Day Camp gives younger children a taste of camping. Each week is packed with outrageous camp games, Super Splash, Scripture Adventure, and more. Your child can develop skills on the archery and BB ranges, swim, play large group games, and try all kinds of real camp activities. Most of all, day campers will hear about Jesus and have great Christian role models. Day camp counselors are highly trained and motivated leaders who love kids and will help your child grow spiritually, develop social skills, and build self-confidence.

Mountaineers Overnight Camp (Rising 7th-10th Grade)

Rising 7th-10th graders can double their fun and excitement by staying two weeks! With unique programming that includes additional activities, Mountaineers is not just a few more days at camp—it’s a fantastic time for growth in relationships, knowledge, and your camper’s walk with God.

While the Mountaineer program is much more challenging and extreme than our one-week programs, they shoot arrows at archery, take a ride on the zip line, and conquer the high ropes course among other great activities. They will also get to participate in camp favorites—Pool Olympics, Adventure Ball, and Commando!

Two of our highly-trained counselors will lead each cabin in activities, devotions, and Bible studies. As with all other camp programs, there will be a primary emphasis on spiritual growth. More time at camp means more time for life change!

What do Mountaineers get to experience that is different than Explorers?

Staying for a second week opens a new level of challenge to camp. Mountaineers will get to experience a 2-night camp-out at Cedar Cliff which includes learning new wilderness skills as well as rappelling off our own Cedar Cliff! They’ll hike up Catawba Falls one day and also explore a nearby private lake with stand-up paddleboards and a rope swing. It’s not just another week, it’s another experience.

Come test ride a Cargo bike!

This event is for the bike-curious who are interested in test riding a cargo bike. This includes parents who are thinking about riding with their kids and might benefit from test riding other parents’ kid friendly rigs. Christopher M. Craig, Nanci Vessels Mackey and I will be there with electric and non-electric assist bikes to for you to try, including a CETMA Largo, Bullit, Yuba Mundo, Yuba Spicy Curry and various combinations of commuter bikes and kid seats. This event happening as part of the Asheville Cargo Bike Gang, the Facebook group.

It will be fun, casual, and family friendly and this is not a sales event! We simply want to spread the word about how fun biking on a cargo bike can be – kids or no kids! The location is the blank lot on the corner of N Liberty and Hillside.

Don’t miss out– you can’t test ride bikes like these anywhere else in Asheville.

And If you think your kids are too heavy to ride around town, come check out what we’ve learned about electric assist.

See some of the bikes: https://www.flickr.com/photos/clarkmackey/sets/72157667077797580
