Wilderness Camp

You and your small group will camp in tents, assist with all aspects of camp life, and have a rustic, outdoor experience! During the day you’ll choose between rock climbing, canoeing, and hiking. Evenings will be spent playing games and gathering around the campfire. You’ll have small group discussions talking about college life and what it means to be a Bishop. You’ll sleep well after good meals, great friends, star gazing, and challenging your body and mind!

WHERE?

All participants will meet at OWU, move into their residence hall rooms, and then travel together the next day to Coopers Rock State Forest, West Virginia. You will set up your home at base camp and prepare for a great outdoor experience! All Wilderness Camp activities will originate from the West Virginia site.

WHEN?

Move-in: Thursday, August 18

Move into residence halls at OWU and take a little time to get your room set up! Later that afternoon all new-to-OWU students and families celebrate the start of their OWU collegiate experience with welcome programs!
