Westminster
Highlands is a heavily wooded 640 acre site just north of interstate 80 near
Emlenton. The varied terrain includes open meadows and
steep forest trails leading to Little Scrubgrass creek. Most acreage remains
undeveloped except for hiking trails.
Campers live in rustic three sided Adirondack huts (Camp Knox), in newly constructed rustic cabins (Camp Calvin) and in portable lightweight tents (for outbased programs). There are adjacent bathhouses with toilets and hot showers, picnic pavillions, a central dining hall and a beautiful forest chapel.
Recreational facilities
at the site include a swimming pool, boating pond, game fields and an extensive
network of hiking trails. An Initiative/Low/High Ropes course, Zip Line and
outbased canoe trips provide older campers with
challenging
opportunities for high adventure.
The
majority of our programs at Westminster Highlands are run by our capable summer
staff. There are a few programs which utilize volunteer staffs. The programs
at this camp are geared for those in grades K - 2, 3rd - 6th, Junior and Senior
high.
