Great counselors
If you want to see your students challenged to be leaders and disciple-makers in their schools and families, take them to Snowbird. If you want to spend yourself for the gospel and your passion is youth ministry, apply for summer staff.
It was amazing they give you so many spiritual tools that are truely life changing. They help you look at stuff at a new way and ultimately helped bring me closer to god and the activities were amazing. I wish I could have stayed longer but I can't complain about this place what so ever.its amazing every church should try to send their youth there.
Cons - When we arrived we we're greeted and were told to sign up for activities. How do we sign up / rules for signing up? Like how many on/ off campus? Very little info given. When we got to the snack shack( where we register) lines upon lines awaited us. We waited outside for an hour, before we could even start registering. When we did start to register, all the things I stood in line for were full! I got to sign up for ONE of the three things that I wanted (paintball) and one other. They actually ran out ANYTHING for us to do on my third spot, leaving me with an empty day to do nothing on a rec day. Frustrated and hungry, I went to dinner. I remember saying to my friend, "they better have great food if they put us through all this" I was confused when I arrived at the cafeteria, when we waited for another half hour just to get into the cafeteria. It was obvious that cafeteria was way too small to accommodate the number of people attending, due to no where to sit and when you did sit, your chair back touched the person behind yous chair back. When I got my food, I was astonished, how much did I pay to go here? The food was a joke. That night, we were served pork that wasn't prepared properly so it was practically inedible, the applefriter was soggy and mushy and gross somehow, and the trend continued. The only things I look forward to are things like beans and microwave pancakes because they don't make them themselves. For lunch we got FIVE NACHOS. it was a comical sight to see everyone run to the salad bar to compensate the hilariously small portion sizes. How are we supposed to go white water rafting if we are starving and have no energy? Or, is this all a scheme to get us to buy food at the snack shack? Either way, the food here is a joke and severely darkens my opinion of the camp, as every meal I arrive happy and hungry but leave hungry and angry. The worship place is overcrowded as well, with people sitting on the floor and chairs so close together you can't stand in some places.
Great speakers
Snowbird is a fantastic summer camp and has great retreats for teenagers and leaders alike! Not only is it the best place I've ever taken a group of teenagers, it is also an awesome place for adults attending their various year round retreats. When attending retreats, camps, or conferences you're always looking to find the right balance of fun and solid, bold, in-depth biblical teaching. Snowbird has found that balance! Through great staff training, excellent staff-to-student ratios, a plethora of recreation activities, and top notch programming anyone who attends Snowbird, whether it be a student or adult, will be thankful they had the opportunity to spend time immersed in this awesome community!
I can say confidently that Snowbird is the most gospel-centered, biblically-driven, life-changing youth camp that exists right now. The staff are an answer to prayer when it comes to resources that will serve your students well.
On conclusion what could have been an amazing camp has distracted me with my continual hunger and overall experience with their penny pinching for a not cheap camp at all. Some serious management problems.
Pros- great band
I wish they had 10 stars tom give. In all my years in ministry this is by far the best place I have found for not just youth but folks of all ages. Camp is awesome! Recreation is the best! More important then that the teaching and knowledge you will receive here is off the chaats. And I forgot to mention the FOOD!!!! love this place and all the staff a+++++++++++++++++
I was so excited to attend snowbird wilderness outfitters summer of 2017, but what greeted me was an overcrowded, lackluster experience.
