Welcome

  

Welcome to CCCA's Carolinas/Virginias Section website. The Carolinas/Virginias Section is made up of CCCA member camps from the great states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia. On this site, you'll find:

  • The Section Members tab provides a list of all CCCA member camps in the Carolinas/Virginias Section. Find out where member camps are located, then drill down to additional information about these great camps.
  • On the Section Leadership tab, you'll find information regarding the leadership of both the Southeast Region (of which we are a part) and local section leadership.
  • Visit the Section News and Events tab for details about upcoming events in our section, our region as well as training events and the annual conference hosted by CCCA.
  • The Sectional Conference tab provides details about our annual sectional where local Christian camps come together for two to three days of worship, fellowship, networking and fun. If you are not a part of CCCA, no problem. You can still attend. Check out the Sectional Conference tab for more information.
  • Finally, the Section Connection tab provides members with various resources, including links to various ways to communicate within — and outside of — our section.

On behalf of CCCA and the Carolinas/Virginias Section, thanks for visiting, and we hope to see you at one of our member camps and conferences soon!

Conference Head Start Seminar

We are excited to offer a head start seminar that will take place on Monday, March 6th, starting at 2pm. The Head Start presenter will be John Skaggs, who is the Chair for the Camping Ministry Major at Appalachian Bible College in Beckley, West Virginia. John has been involved in Christian Camping for 24 years, including 15 of those years spent teaching at the college while helping the camping and adventure program at Alpine Ministries operated out of the college.

The Head Start will focus on designing effective program activities and using the 6 Elements of Programs to design unique activities. Every program has 6 elements that can be identified and changed to keep programming fresh and effective. This seminar will teach these through an activity-based, experiential learning environment so people can design creative programming that meets participant needs.

If you would like to attend the head start seminar, please register here. There is no cost to attend.

Other Conference Notes

Be on the look out for the conference schedule, information on the guest speaker, worship leaders, seminar presenters, and a full list of the seminars being offered.
