What's a Presbytery?
The Presbytery is a regional group of Presbyterian churches.
Elders (ordained lay-leaders) and pastors from these
churches meet together regularly, and the Presbytery
coordinates ministry and resources to benefit the whole. See

We
provide individuals of all ages the opportunity to
grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ, each
other, their families and their church home through
outdoor living experiences in a distinctly Christian
Community.
The
Presbytery of the Cascades is composed
of over 120 churches in Southwestern
Washington, Western Oregon and part of
Northern California. The Presbytery's summer
camp program serves youth and families from
these churches, other churches and those
with no church affiliation.
Our camps, with the exception of the
Honeyman State Park Family camp, are at
camps owned by the
United Methodist
Oregon-Idaho Camp and Conference Centers.
These ACA accredited campsites provide safe
places, accessible throughout our region, for
campers to experience the love of God
surrounded by God's creation.
Our camps
are staffed by volunteers from our churches,
many who trained to be counselors through
our Counselor program. These pastors, youth
leaders, and young adults are dedicated to
the safety and spiritual growth of our
campers. The program is coordinated by a
Presbytery staff member.
