Updates to Conference Policy for Supplementing Youth Summer Camp

Attention Youth Campers and Families,

Please read the following information carefully, as the Conference policy for supplementing youth summer camping has changed.

For the 2026 summer season, the Keystone Conference will campership or reimburse 30% of the cost for one youth to attend one summer camping experience. If a youth attends more than one camp during the summer, only one camp will be eligible for the 30% reimbursement. Please use the application for additional camps if this creates a hardship.

Camps Using a Coupon Code

For the following camps, please enter the coupon code at the time of registration and your 30% will be credited immediately:

  • Camp Kirchenwald: KEYSTONEUCC26
  • Camp Nawakwa: KEYSTONEUCC26
  • HC Spirit Camp: KEYSTONEUCC26

All Other Camps

If a youth from a United Church of Christ congregation within the Keystone Conference is attending any other church camp during the summer of 2026, please follow this process:

  1. Register for the camp and pay the full registration fee. Be sure to obtain a receipt.
  2. Complete the Conference reimbursement application, found here, and mail it, along with a copy of your camp receipt, to:
    Keystone Conference
    Attn: Sue Creswell
    P.O. Box 6625
    Harrisburg, PA 17112
  3. Upon receipt of the completed application and camp registration receipt, the Conference will issue a check reimbursing 30% of the camp tuition.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to Sue Creswell at [email protected].
