Experiences for today, Memories for life!

With 165 acres of hardwood forest, New Hope Camp and Conference Center offers an unparalleled summer camping experience for boys and girls in both overnight and day camping. The property includes two freshwater lakes, a prayer labyrinth, basketball and volleyball courts, nature trails, playground and an Olympic-sized swimming pool.

In 2009, Summer Camp hosted 638 campers, and 92 of them attended with scholarship aid. While Summer Camp was under way, two local churches, Westminster Presbyterian Church of Durham and University Presbyterian Church of Chapel Hill, each used the facilities separately for their vacation Bible schools. Next, the Girl Scouts spent a week at camp, and the Blue Ribbon Mentor-Advocate program of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools also used the property. At summer's end, the UNC Freshman Camp filled all buildings during an annual orientation program for entering students.

As a conference center, the site offers facilities year-round for meetings, retreats and other events. Lodges, cabins and guesthouses can accommodate more than 150 visitors for overnight stays, and daytime events can include 300 or more. Catering for 35 or more is available.

New Hope Presbyterian Church purchased the camp from New Hope Presbytery in 2003, enabling the church to re-establish a camping tradition that began in 1947. At that time, several current congregation members and their parents began erecting camp facilities on the property. Today, the camp is governed by a board of trustees that includes representatives from New Hope and five other Presbyterian churches.
