Summer Camp is an integral part of the AHG experience. It is at summer camp that connections are made, skills are gained, and growth is seen. At AHG Southwest Summer Camp, girls participate in a variety of activities meant to challenge them while teaching them life and leadership skills that they will use throughout AHG and their lives. Some activities include daily devotions, meals, badge work, camp service project, free time, and nightly entertainment.
It is our hope that the experiences the girls share during Resident Camp will become memories that last a LIFETIME!
