Our Short-Term one week sessions are perfect opportunities to experience camp for the first time.  While most of our campers attend for our Long-Term Two Week camps, the thrill of being at Riverview for the first time is quickly replaced with “I can’t wait to go back next summer”!

What Our Campers Are Saying

Don’t just take it from us, let our campers do the talking!

There is something so special about Riverview; about getting to go away for two weeks every summer and learn so much more about myself in those two weeks than I would ever learn in the other 50 weeks away from camp.

Hollis

The community we experienced is how I believe God intended for us to live in community with each other. The peace, rest, joy, encouragement, and love poured over us at Riverview is something we grasped on to as campers. God’s exuberant love fills this special camp in Mentone, Alabama in a way that words cannot express.

Sarah

I am very thankful for what Riverview has done for me. In my daily life often times I find myself wishing I could be at camp. The love and joy I feel while I am at Riverview constantly draws me back. Nothing else in my life has shaped me more into who I am now than the role models and friends I have gained from Riverview and it is something I will cherish forever.

Late departure: Extended days/nights past the regular check-out day of the regularly scheduled session will be prorated based on the session fee.

What are the payment options for camp?

If you are a person that likes to plan ahead, you may choose our monthly payment option…otherwise, payments are due in November, February and the balance is due by May 1. Riverview accepts credit card payments for your convenience.

Will I receive a refund if my child does not attend the full session?

Late arrival:  There is no reduction in fees for late arrivals.

Early departure:  In case of leaving camp early due to documented physical illness, the camp will credit the unused camp fee as a pre-registration deposit for the next year.  Otherwise, there is no refund or credit for any other early departure reason.

If a cancellation is made before April 1 all fees are returned except a $300 processing fee. From April 1-May 1 half of the camp fee will be returned. However, the non-refundable amounts may be transferred to the following year for the same camper or a sister. After May 1 fees are not refundable but are transferable to the following year or to a sister. For session changes after May 1 that reduce the fee the credit balance may be transferred for trips or transportation fees and to the following year’s registration.

What ages attend Camp Riverview?

faq3Girls ages 6 to 16 attend Riverview Camp! I We have accepted campers that are about to turn 6 as well, if you as a parent feels she is socially independent enough to enjoy camp! We have adequate numbers in all age groups. It is an amazing combination of wonder and delightful camaraderie as girls of all ages enjoy camp together, while taking activities and living in cabins with their own age/grade range!  If she is 16 years old she can still attend camp, even if she will be turning 17 the day after she arrives at camp.

Who attends Riverview Camp?

faq2Delightful families! You will join other families who are seek opportunities for their daughters to be in Christian environments for safe, exciting and fulfilling opportunities, including getting to meet girls from a diversity of families and faiths. We are privileged to have many campers of moms who were themselves campers and counselors with us!

How are the one-week sessions and two-week sessions structured?

• Two-Week Session 1 (Sessions A and B are one-week program options during Session 1)
• Two-Week Session 2 (Sessions C and D are one-week program options during Session 2)
• Two-Week Session 3 (two-week campers only)
• Two-Week Session 4 (Sessions E and F are the one-week options during Session 4)

Some campers enjoy combining one-week and two-week sessions for a 3 week or longer stay. (Example Session 1 and Session C).

 

One-week or two-weeks or more…what is best for my child?

Both ofaq4ne- and two-week campers will enjoy the experience and benefits that camp offers. Most of our campers attend a two-week session, though we have one-week campers who attend each session.

If possible, we recommend that your camper attends for two-weeks. Campers tend to get “settled in” during the first week and the following week they spend more time developing skills in activities, making stronger friendships and enjoying the feeling of “my camp”. While this experience begins and is meaningful in the one-week program, it is firmly absorbed in the two-week progression. If she initially signs up for one week and wants to extend her stay, you may add on another week if there is a space available!

Each session we have campers who are multi-session campers who attend three, four, five, and even up to eight weeks. Multi-session campers enjoy a chaperoned excursion between sessions to nearby Chattanooga.

 

What if I have one child that I want to send for two weeks and another child that I wish to send for one week?

As you can see our one-week options are a part of our two-week sessions! If you have more than one child that you are sending to Riverview and you are considering sending one child for two weeks and one child for one week, we recommend that, if possible, the one-week camper attend the second one-week program in that session! It is usually easier for your two-week daughter to anticipate the arrival of her sister than for her to have to see the departure of her sister in the middle of her two-week program!

What are the transportation options to camp?

Riverview transportation Riverview transportationRiverview BusWhile most parents drive their girls to camp, we offer chaperoned airport pickups in Chattanooga (preferred), Birmingham, Atlanta and Fort Payne’s Isbell Field Airports. As a service, we offer limited chartered, chaperoned buses that normally include Baton Rouge and/or Covington/Mandeville, LA; Mobile, Evergreen, Montgomery and Birmingham, AL. RIVERVIEW WILL NOT BE OFFERING CHAPERONED BUSSES TO OR FROM CAMP FOR SUMMER 2023.  TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS, IF ANY, HAVE NOT YET BEEN DECIDED FOR 2024.

My daughter is a younger camper; will her daily needs be met like they are at home?

Riverview Young young2We understand that the younger camper needs more guidance, direction and personal-care time. Counselors are trained to assist the younger children with their daily needs, including personal hygiene, scheduling and meal times.  We have programs in place to make this an easy transition for your young child.  Please let us know any specifics about your child’s daily needs…we are here to help!   Your daughter may find it helpful if you organize her clothing in Ziploc bags labeled by day or evening (include t-shirt, shorts, underwear, socks) to assist with her morning and evening routines. Also  Velcro tennis shoes will make her camp life simpler. Younger campers need to practice washing their hair in the shower before coming to camp to make camp life easier for them!

What are some of the personal benefits of attending Riverview?

faq7The benefits of camping will include the opportunity to build self-confidence, strengthen social skills, increase cooperation, explore new activities, appreciate nature, form lasting memories, experience healthy friendships, interact with positive adult role models and grow closer to God. As you look through our website, we hope you hear our hearts.  We just want to take care of your daughters in a safe place, providing great opportunities, good role models and creating opportunities for life-long meaningfulness while we “empower” them to make good decisions in life! One of the goals that most of our parents/guardians tell us is that their wish is to lead their girls into becoming independent, confident children/young adults and enhance their childhood, teen years and their adulthood! Regardless of their length of stay, at camp…it is amazing how children will grow…grow self-confidence, friendships and values that last a lifetime. We think that “family” is the most important part of her life and we are grateful to be a part of your child’s “camp family”. We are so fortunate! To you, the parents and guardians, we just want to say Thank you! We believe that children are the wondrous beginnings that make a profound difference in the world around us. Your confidence in your child and in Riverview will be sensed by your child and will be celebrated by Riverview as we commit to support your parental success. To increase your confidence in Riverview, please watch the on-line segments from our parents and staff… listen to their experiences as well!

What if I want to give camp or camp items as a “gift for a special occasion”?

faq8Giving camp as a gift is a great idea! Birthdays, Christmas, Valentines, Easter Baskets, etc. are perfect occasions for camp items! This gift includes… new friends and making great memories, s’mores, campfires, tennis, archery, swimming, canoeing, ropes course, climbing tower, chorus & drama, gymnastics, dance, cheerleading, horseback riding, adventure, inspiration, character and confidence building, and so much more!

What are the benefits of Single-gender camping?

Girls love living and learning and playing in an environment without the pressure of “boys”…Please watch this video to get the full answer!
