Why Breakaway?
We believe that overnight camp is one of the greatest tools available to the church for evangelism and discipleship. It is our hope to see 5-8th grade students break away from their regular rhythms and have the best week of their year connecting with peers and being given the opportunity for a spiritual step.
Who is leading the camp?
Calvary Church's, Joshua Brussel, will be the speaker for this week of camp. The cabin leaders will be Highpoint's trained all-summer staff. Finally, Calvary's small group/table leaders will be invited to join your student for a meal during camp.
What should I bring?
Packing with your teen should be quick and easy. Just follow this easy packing guide.
When does signup open/close? Is there early bird registration?
Signups will open on February 2nd and close on July 28th. Those who register before May 1st receive a $25 early bird discount. There are a limited amount of beds available.
How are cabin rosters created?
At signup, you will be able to request friends for your student to be in a cabin with. Highpoint and the CSM team will use that to build the cabin rosters ensuring that every student will have a great week.
