What is Camp Wild Sky?

Wild Sky is a beautiful summer camp recently explored by Lifeteen International with weeks of camp for both Lifeteen (high school) and Edge (middle school). The camp combines summer camp and retreat, geared towards middle schoolers and includes high and low ropes courses, a mud obstacle course, tons of fields and gaga pit, lake activities like paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking, messy games, adoration, praise and worship, dynamic talks, and an incredible experience with great people and the opportunity to encounter God in nature. Youth groups come from all over Texas to experience the #bestweekever. Wild Sky is truly a one of a kind experience for middle schoolers and one you won't want to miss!

Here is a video for you to see what a week at a Lifeteen/Edge Camp looks like!

Are scholarships available?
Because Wild Sky is a longer trip and more expensive, it's hard to find financial assistance compared to smaller retreats. However, we never want money to get in the way of an experience like Wild Sky. So, if you are in need of financial assistance, please contact us and we'll see what we can do.  Additionally, if you would like to sponsor a teen in need, plese contact us as well.
