Camp Mardela is a Church of the Brethren Christian Camp located on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Our denomination is one of the historic peace churches, so peace informs much of what we do. We strive to exemplify the Brethren lifestyle of living peacefully, simply, and together in all that we do.
Located on 125 acres of land in the peaceful woods of Denton, MD and bordering the serene Watts Creek, this is a perfect setting for campers to retreat into nature to learn about themselves, how to live in community, and how to honor God in all that they do. We have day camps, weekend camps, week-long overnight camps and travel camps throughout the summer, all led by a diverse group of talented camp directors for each program. Programs are available for campers from Kindergarten through 12th grade, with some intergenerational and adult camp and retreat options as well!
Our traditional week-long overnight camps feature a variety of activities: classes such as crafts, nature and Bible, and outdoor activities like swimming in our swimming pond, boating, and fishing. For winter retreats campers stay in the bedrooms in our King Retreat Center, and in the summer campers stay in our more rustic cabins. There is air conditioning in all cabins and main buildings, and a central bath house with toilets and showers that all campers and counselors share.
We also offer some specialty camps that focus on special activities. We have a Creative Arts camp that has extra activities for all things creative, and our Youth Trip Camp that travels to North Carolina to join several other Brethren camps for hiking and mountain adventures.
We also offer intergenerational camps for those who would like to come to camp as a family Unit. Me & You camp is structured to introduce younger campers to camp for the first time with a parent/guardian. Family Camp is another weekend camp that people of all ages can come to. There are many camp activities, and a guest speaker who provides teaching for the weekend.
We also have a day camp for campers who are not ready to stay at night, but still want a full camp experience. This camp offers all of the traditional camp activities during the day, with the option for campers to stay overnight Thursday-Friday.
Our facilities are structured in a way to foster a deep sense of community, encouraging small groups to get to know each other and serve each other well during their time at camp. We focus on these smaller group experiences because this is where deeper, life-long connections can best be made. During the off-season, our facilities are available for rent as well.
Our goal is to keep camp accessible and affordable, and we have many donors who help keep our costs down and offer scholarships for campers who may be in financial need. If your camper would like to join us this summer, check out all of our camp programs at www.campmardela.org/camp-programs.
