Mission teams often struggle to get next to Native teens on reservation missions.  Here, your team will eat, sleep, play, and live with them for four days, Monday through Thursday!  Local youth have come to trust our partners.  They are very receptive to mission teams.  Great care must be taken to preserve that trust.  Your group will have the opportunity to make new friends and relationships that may last for years after your mission!
 
Our hosts are known, trusted, and beloved by people of the region, not only for their ministry to Native youth and kids, but for their warm and generous hearts. Camp attendance fees are very inexpensive, and often scholarships are given to kids who can’t afford even that. They serve Native tribes from all over the state. 
 
Teams should be students in Middle School and/or Senior High. Maximum group size is 25; minimum group size is 15.

Ministry
Assist at Camp: a faith-based summer camp for kids and youth this summer. A four-day, overnight Bible camp for Native kids in 6th-9th grades; and a four-day set of Day Camps for kids in K-5th grades.  What amazing opportunities!

Red Rock Outreach: About 20 miles from Camp our hosts runs a snack shop, clothes bank, and counseling center in Red Rock. It is a very popular place in the community and is a great location to work with Pastor Jimmy to customize your trip activities!

Red Rock Community Vacation Bible School: Prepare and host a local VBS for this rural community.  There are not many summertime offerings for this local community so your team could get to know many community kids and their families to make this a community mission!

Lodging
If camp is in session, your team will divide and sleep on one side of this very large main lodge. You will have bunk beds and be in the same large section with the Native kids. The Camp will have an adult or two also in each section to monitor the kids’ needs and behavior. Each dorm section feeds into the huge dining and open area. There are bathrooms in each section, with 4 each toilets, sinks, and showers.

If camp is not in session, your team will stay at the Red Rock community church. Here, your group will also have divided sleeping arrangements, bathrooms, showers and kitchen facilities. 

Travel
If you fly, Tulsa’s airport is about 80 miles from camp. Stillwater’s airport is smaller but only 22 miles from camp. Please be sure to plan ahead which rental vehicle options are available for you. Camp Crossway is located in Pawnee, Oklahoma. Throughout the week, teams will use their own vehicles for transportation.
