OUR AIM
To provide an opportunity for children, youth, and adults to interact, to have fun, and to grow in a warm, secure, Christian environment.
OUR MISSION
Moorecroft seeks to be inclusive of all in our mission to serve God, church, community; to promote spiritual growth and foster faith; to provide leadership and fellowship in a safe haven.
BRIEF HISTORY
Operating as a privately owned girl's camp during the 1930's and 1940's, Ms. Moore sold the property to the United Church in the 1955. For several decades, the camp operated only in the summer providing fun for thousands of children and youth throughout the years. More recently, the camp has undertaken a substantial upgrading approach, and operates year round meeting the needs of school groups, retreats, and a variety of other community groups.
