About CYSC: CYSC is a premier High Adventure camp filled with high ropes, paintball, blobbing, archery tag, giant swing, dual zip lines, a 5-story climbing wall, and more! The root of CYSC is found in the sacramental life of the Catholic Church and their mission work is anything but boring.



​


CYSC was founded in 2001 as a parish initiative to help young people “live the adventure” of their Catholic faith.  Their mission is to awaken, empower, and equip a generation to live the adventure of the Catholic faith through world-class programs and an environment of encounter.   

• Challenge yourself with high ropes courses, dual giant swings, ziplines, paintball, and much more. 
• Each day will include daily mass, reconciliation opportunities, dynamic speakers, sacred art opportunities, engaging small group leaders, worship ministry, adoration, dramas & skits, and outdoor chapel.
• Wrap up the day with comedy skits, praise & worship, and dance parties. 
• A great staff to camper ratio leads to lifelong friendships and faith experiences. 
• Parents can attend a very powerful mass as they pick up their children (don’t forget to arrive a bit early to hear the students’ powerful testimonies!)
