Camp Shalom

Camp Shalom is a week-long, all-day Christian day camp at Umstead State Park sponsored by Edenton Street United Methodist Church since the summer of 1981. It originally started as a leadership opportunity for our high school youth and has become a favorite week for many children in our congregation. Elementary children have fun just being kids and looking up to their high school counselors, middle-schoolers begin taking on some leadership roles while participating as kids, too, and our high school youth feel an overwhelming desire to give back to a program that has meant so much to them throughout their lives. The week combines fun, learning, worship, and play in a celebration of God's creation for rising 1st graders through 12th graders.
