Sports & Recreation
Ultimate Frisbee
Ultimate frisbee is also a favorite of some of Jumonville’s camps. Games can be mild or wild. Senior High Sports Camp always includes a rousing game of ultimate frisbee that has been a camp tradition for years.
Wrist Rockets
Wrist Rockets are like “sling shots.” However, we put a neat twist on it and shoot dog food rather than stones so it is much safer and the dog food is biodegradable. A fun activity with our own targets that let you know by the sounds if you hit the target.
Tire Swing
Tire Swing The tire swing is a favorite of all ages. Who doesn’t enjoy a turn on the tire swing.

Volleyball equipment can be obtained in the Jumonville office. Jumonville has both sand volleyball courts as well as paved courts that are covered in “sport court.”

Tennis
Four outdoor tennis courts are available for retreat groups during warmer weather. A limited number of rackets and equipment can be borrowed from the Jumonville office.

Archery

Games
Games are always an important part of every week of summer camp. Both competitive and non-competitive games build communication skills, deepen relationships, and add fun and excitement to the summer camp experience.
Hiking
Wooded trails through the Green Cathedral give groups space to walk, reflect, and enjoy the mountain setting. The campus fit trail, funded in part by a Fayette County Tourism Grant, features ten exercise stations.
