Camp Fellowship
Camp
Fellowship is located on 133 acres of land in Laurens County, nestled
on the north shore of Lake Greenwood. The Camp includes the adult conference
center and 2 smaller cabins which are heated and cooled and provide a
total of 51 beds. These facilities are rented year-round for conferences
and retreats. Meals for groups of 15 - 100 are served in the dining room.
A dock separates the swimming area from the rest of the lake and also
provides fishermen with a prime spot for enjoying hours of great fishing.
Near the swimming area is a large picnic area with tables where groups
enjoy church picnics or cookouts as well as corporate outings.
A large meeting building referred to as Fraser Chapel provides a spacious
meeting room with a stage-area. The newest attraction in this building
is the climbing wall which provides hours of fun for summer campers as
well as retreat groups.
In
another portion of the Camp Fellowship acreage are the cabins, bath-house,
and "craft house" used primarily for the summer camp program.
This ministry of Camp Fellowship brings together 300+ children between
the ages of 6 and 15 years to enjoy traditional summer camps as well as
the newer offerings, sailing camp, river run, and climbing wall camp;
providing an exciting camp experience with Bible Study included in each
day’s schedule. Summer counselors are college-age students who enjoy
the outdoors and working with children and want an opportunity to develop
their leadership skills. Visit Camp Fellowship at their new
