Welcome!
Since 1925, Camp Westminster has provided a setting for summer camps, retreats, mission trips and outdoor summer worship in northern Michigan on beautiful Higgins Lake. The camp occupies forty wooded, lakefront acres 200 miles north of Detroit, and an outpost site on the Au Sable River. It is surrounded by hundreds of acres of state forest. The camp's forty-plus buildings, recreational facilities, and outdoor chapel are situated on Higgins Lake, known for its crystal clear spring-fed water and soft sandy bottom.
The summer camp program allows children and youth to develop a sense of responsibility and self-worth in a Christian community. The enthusiastic, gifted, and multicultural staff are carefully selected and thoroughly trained. The camp director is year-round staff at the Westminster Presbyterian Church of Detroit. Camp Westminster is accredited by the American Camp Association (what does this mean?) and licensed by the State of Michigan.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of Presbyterian camp & conference ministry, which Camp Westminster is part of! We join approximately 140 other Presbyterian sites around the USA who provide welcome environments for people of all ages to relax, renew and refresh through retreats, a week or two of summer camp, mission work, group-building exercises, and diverse conferences. http://www.pccca.net/100th
