About
Cedarbrook Camp of Ohio

Overview

Cedarbrook Camp™ of Ohio at Stony Glen is an interdenominational Christian camp located thirty-five miles east of Cleveland, just south of Madison, Ohio.

CCO runs for four weeks in the latter half of the summer — three weeks of Girls' Camp and one week of Coed Camp. Our daily schedule provides a variety of fun-filled activities, led by trained Christian staff members, that enable campers to develop new skills and earn achievement awards. Your child will choose activities for the week and will participate in a period of daily Bible Study with his/her cabin mates. During free time each camper will have the opportunity to purchase food items and souvenirs from the camp store. Evenings offer a variety of divisional and all-camp programs and end around the campfire for a time of singing and a lesson from God's Word. Every cabin group enjoys a mid-week cookout, and many choose to sleep out that night under the stars or in tents.

Every precaution is taken to provide a safe and healthy environment for your child. Camp meals provide balanced nutrition with food kids like! Medical personnel is on site at all times.

It is our desire that your child will not only develop new skills, but will also learn the important lessons of responsibility, independence, and resourcefulness. Camp is an excellent place to make new friends. For this reason, requests for specific cabin mates are limited to one.

Our staff is made up of men and women who love the Lord, love kids, and love to have fun. Our mission is to provide an outdoor living experience where campers discover the joy of living the Christian life 24/7. We look forward to having your children in camp this summer.

Cedarbrook Camp of Ohio is affiliated with the Association of Cedarbrook Camps. It is accredited by the American Camp Association and is a member of the Christian Camp and Conference Association.

The Site: Stony Glen Camp

Stony Glen Camp is located in Madison, Ohio not far off of SR 528 and I-90. For a map and driving directions, click here.

The camp is located on a beautiful property of over 300 acres. With a 3-acre lake, 5 waterfalls, lots of woodland, and a piece of the Grand River, Stony Glen Camp is a sanctuary from the glass and concrete of modern civilization.

Although they sometimes sleep out under the stars, our campers and staff typically stay in 15 cabins which are spread out across the site. There is a horse corral, an archery field and rifle range, a camp store ("Tuck Shop"), dining hall, an indoor gym and chapel, and much more.

Girls' Camp

Weeks 1-3 at CCO are dedicated to Girls' Camp.

Additional programming during our third week includes a Voyager division and a small number of CILT boys learning to be leaders. However, this does not detract from a quality Girls' Camp program.

Coed Camp

Week 4 at CCO is open to both girls and boys (girls entering grades 3-8; boys entering grades 3-12).

Coed week is a wonderful opportunity for the entire family to enjoy a Christian camping experience. Moms, dads, grandparents, come serve on staff while your kids enjoy their week as campers. Those of you with sons and daughters, plan this week as a "vacation" together at Cedarbrook Camp of Ohio.

Voyager Division (Half-week program)

Voyager Division Mini Camp is a half-week program designed specifically for girls, going into grades 1-4, to experience camp with an accompanying female adult. It's like a mother-daughter, but more flexible. Aunts, Grandmas: you can come to camp with your niece or granddaughter.

The idea of going to 'sleep-away' camp can feel both exciting and scary to first-time campers. Cedarbrook Camp of Ohio has developed a minicamp experience to familiarize younger campers with our campsite, camp staff, and all the fun activities that make up summer camp at CCO. Mom, ever wish you could get away and enjoy summer camp with your daughter? — Auntie, want to know how to become your niece's favorite aunt? — Grandma, ready to win 'World's Most Awesome Grandmother' Award? Experience the best of camp together from horses to swimming, cookouts and crafts, Bible studies, and (of course) campfires complete with s'mores! So, grab your suitcases and sleeping bags and prepare to make memories with that special girl in your life!

Dates: July 29-Aug 1 (Sun-Wed)
Registration: Sun 4pm
Fees: $110/participant.
