Camp CoBeAc

Teens from all walks of life will meet, compete, and retreat into the beautiful woods of CoBeAc. At CoBeAc, the focus is on the four elements of camp:

1. No Distractions
2. Great Food
3. Real Joy
4. and Spiritual Intensity

Hundreds of young people will be challenged by preachers from all across the country to make decisions in the areas of salvation and Christian growth! Zip line, human foosball, basketball, volleyball, miniature golf, swimming, boating, and so much more are available for you to channel your inner explorer!

Dress code

Ladies

• Our general rule is "neck to the knees and loose." Loose, knee-length shorts, loose-fitting slacks/jeans/pants are acceptable for recreational activities. CoBeAc does not view leggings/jeggings as appropriate outerwear; if worn, please layer under other knee-length attire. Casual skirts or dresses must come to the middle of the knee and are encouraged to be worn to the evening services. Shirts must have sleeves; no tank tops or spaghetti strap tops should be worn. Avoid wearing clothing with inappropriate advertisements.
• A one-piece or two-piece swimsuit that meets in the middle (full coverage) and has straps is acceptable (if a bikini, please wear a t-shirt over it while swimming). Girls must wear a t-shirt and shorts over swimwear going TO and FROM swim time. *Don’t forget flip flops, sunscreen, hat, & beach towel!

Gentlemen

• Our general rule is "neck to the knees and loose." Recreational clothing for outdoor activities, athletic clothing for gym activities, and nice, casual clothing should be worn to the evening services. All shirts must have sleeves: no tank tops. Bring clothes that would be comfortable, yet conservative, for recreational activities. Avoid wearing clothing with inappropriate advertisements.
• Swim shorts are acceptable swimwear. Guys must wear a t- shirt TO and FROM swim time. Remember flip flops, sunscreen, hat, & beach towel!

Medical

• Medications must be brought to camp in their original bottle/package. This is a legal requirement. NO EXCEPTIONS. We suggest each camper bring their medications in a gallon-sized bag with written directions for times and dosages. We cannot accept weekly pill dispensers.
• As a part of health check at registration, teen campers will turn their meds into the Health Technicians. Teens should pick up their medications before departure on Friday in the upper courtyard.
• Although we do not anticipate needing to require a Recent General Health Form, CoBeAc has always expected that campers come to camp in good health and not to have experienced a fever or flu-like symptoms within the 48 hours preceding arrival to camp.

Camp Stores

• Mineshaft
  • At the Mineshaft, campers can purchase all of their CoBeAc gear: from apparel like t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hats to other mementos like blankets, notebooks, and backpacks. The Mineshaft also sells snacks like Jones Sodas and candy bars.
• Ugly Mug
  • Campers (and sponsors) will be sure to stop by the Ugly Mug for their fill of specialty coffee drinks. Here, you can order frappuccinos, lattes, iced coffee, fruit smoothies, or even get an "ugly" mug of your own to bring home.
• The Outpost
  • Down in the lower courtyard, campers will find the Outpost, a canteen-style concessions stand where snacks like ice cream, Jones soda, candy bars, bosco sticks, and popcorn can be purchased.

FAQ
