welcome to camp

Nerd Camp

Do you ever find yourself wishing you could lay siege to a castle, or catch your mind drifting to a galaxy far away? Maybe you yearn to tinker with Lego bricks for an entire afternoon? 

Oh good you do too? We thought we were the only ones.

Come join us on a journey back in time to the Middle Ages and put our newly constructed, fully operational trebuchet through its paces. You will have a chance to attack a milk crate castle while adorned in armor you constructed and painted yourself. Journey with us to the unknown regions to the planet “Ilum”. Here you can find your kyber crystal to construct your very own lightsaber. After you have built your saber, perhaps if Master Obi Wan is around, he will instruct us in the ways of blaster bolt deflection. Spend a day tinkering with Lego in multiple building competitions. There will be many categories and even some prizes to be won. A new leaf has turned where being a Nerd is no longer something you hide but something you share with the world.

The Camper Health Provider Form is required to be submitted for each camper. All forms must be received by June 1, 2027 to make sure we are ready for your camper! The Parent Information Packet is available to let you and your camper know what to expect at camp, and what to bring with you. If someone other than the listed parent or guardian will be picking up your camper at the end of the week, please let us know by using the Camper Pick-up Authorization form below. Forms must be uploaded to the CampWise registration website. For help, please contact our office at 608.257.3577 or bethelhorizons@bethelhorizons.org.
