City Camp for Middle Schoolers

Mon., August 1-Fri., Aug. 5
First Presbyterian downtown

This year we have the great opportunity to offer a mission trip for our Middle School-aged youth. All youth who have completed 6th, 7th, or 8th grade, and have attended the majority of youth activities (including the fundraisers and service projects) will be eligible for this trip. City Camp is a great opportunity where the youth get to work at a different non-profit in Portland each day (such as the Oregon Food Bank, NE Emergency Food, Wilderness International, the Blanchet House, etc..), do a fun activity in the afternoon (like a scavenger hunt at the Zoo or swimming at the North Clackamas Aquatic Center), and then stay overnight at First Pres.
