Montlure HOMECOMING!

For the first time since the Wallow Fire in 2011, Montlure welcomed campers home to Greer for the 2024 Summer Camp season!

After years of wandering, our journey reunited us with the place we’ve called home for nearly a century. Our homecoming was more than just a return; it was a celebration of our enduring spirit and the beauty that has risen from the ashes, a testament to our shared journey of growth, renewal, and the unwavering dedication that binds our camp community together. 

Nestled within the Apache-Sitegraves National Forest, our camp site sits at nearly 8,500 feet in elevation in the White Mountains, just off the East Fork Little Colorado River, giving us cool weather and breath-taking Aspen trees in the midst of a beautifully recovering pine forest. Greer is a little piece of heaven, situated away from the busyness and lights of the city where a blanket of stars cover the night sky.

Campers sleep on bunk beds in cabins, with a nearby shower house for boys and girls. We have a commercially equipped kitchen and a beautiful lodge to enjoy the most amazing meals overlooking an expansive meadow. From playing wild recreation games in the field and forest, to gaga ball, 9-square in the air, basketball, or incredible hikes… there are plenty of opportunities for campers to disconnect and reconnect with their peers and with nature.

For more on our progress in Greer, please see montlure.org/greer, follow us on social media @montlurecamp, or contact camp@montlure.org.

Purpose

We believe in the utmost importance of camp for a chance to detach from the stress and anxiety of every day life within a space set apart, and surrounded by the beauty of creation. Montlure provides a safe place for children and youth to connect with both old and new friends, connect with counselors and staff in a mentor relationship, and connect with God as they explore and strengthen their faith. We believe every camper and staff should feel the radical love of God and be fully welcomed and accepted for who we have been individually created to be.

Strength

The strength of Montlure Camp is the people. Montlure’s Overnight Camp teams are comprised of young adults (both full summer staff and volunteers) who are selected for their Christian commitment, work ethic, and love of children. They are trained to lead Bible studies and small groups, high energy outdoor recreation, and all other camp related activities. We are a relational ministry with an emphasis to offer quality Christian role models for young people as they process their faith journeys while building an authentic community of campers.

Uniqueness

Amidst our displacement caused by the Wallow Fire, we persevered and continued to build bonds with this generation of campers. Montlure isn’t defined by a physical location, but rather, it thrives as a collective of past, present, and future campers united by the enduring bonds of love, acceptance, and the sheer joy our community has to offer. While we are full of gratitude and excitemnent to be back at our beloved home site, we carry with us the invaluable lessons we’ve gleaned, understanding that our impact transcends the boundaries of our physical space.

Aample schedule for what camp life looks like. Other than on our “all camp sleep in” day, Wake Up Call is 7:30am and lights out for older campers is 11pm, 10pm for our Juniors Campers.

Everything we do at camp is rooted in our 5 key Sabbath practices: Hospitality, Prayer, Retreat, Service, and Storytelling. However, our particular curriculum changes yearly.
