School Notes

  • Cameron Boys Camp, a ministry of Baptist Children's Homes of NC, may offer your family the hope that you need.
  • The purpose of Cameron Boys Camp is to provide troubled boys in North Carolina, between the ages of 10-15 years old an opportunity to work out big problems and find a new direction for their lives.
  • Life goals are set using an outdoor setting, the fun and adventure of camping, and a team consisting of the boy, his family, camp staff, and peer groups.
  • Cameron Boys Camp helps boys grow emotionally, socially, mentally, physically, and spiritually.
  • The family also grows as they participate in goal setting, counseling, family conferences, and home visits.
  • All working together, a boy reunites with his family better able to succeed in his community.
  • We serve:
  • Boys between the ages of 10-15
  • Boys unable to control their anger
  • Parents who feel like their son is going down the wrong path and the whole family needs support.
  • Boys who are struggling with authority figures.
  • Boys who need to improve peer relationships.
  • Boys who need intense adult male role models and relationships.
  • Boys who seem to be emotionally depressed.
  • Activities: Campers and their chiefs plan daily activities. They build their own living shelters, cut wood, cook meals two days a week, sort laundry, care for equipment, maintain trails, plan trips, and have fun. Group games, fishing, swimming, crafts and personal time fill their weeks, providing a well-balanced program.
  • The program is COA Accredited.
  • The average boy gains two years academically in one year at camp.
  • Chiefs: As authentic, adult role models, chiefs wear many hats – from counselor to friend to teacher. Solid values and strong standards are the backdrop of a chief’s life. Chiefs become deeply involved, daring to change and grow themselves, to help the boys succeed.
