YOUTH CAMP
Last Blast!
One Last Hurrah Before Summer Ends!
Summer isn't over until you've made every moment count!
Last Blast is a weeklong summer camp experience for students in grades 5–12 who are ready to squeeze every last drop of fun out of their summer. Think big challenges, lake adventures, cabin competitions, and the kind of laughter that carries across the campground long after the sun goes down.
At White Memorial Camp, on the shores of Council Grove Lake in the Kansas Flint Hills, Last Blast combines outdoor recreation with meaningful opportunities for friendship, reflection, and spiritual growth. Morning Bible studies and evening Vespers offer time to explore faith, ask questions, and connect with others, while the rest of the day brings plenty of opportunities to get moving, take on challenges, and enjoy being a kid.
Come with your friends or show up ready to make some new ones. Either way, there's a whole week of summer waiting for you.
Let's give summer the send-off it deserves!
ELIGIBILITY:
5th thru 12th Grade

What to Expect at Last Blast!
Big adventures, friendly competition, and absolutely no plans to let summer end quietly!
Last Blast keeps campers on their toes with an exciting mix of outdoor challenges, swimming, lake activities, archery, and high ropes adventures. Between cabin competitions, group activities, and time spent hanging out with friends, there's plenty of room to test your limits, discover new strengths, and have a ridiculous amount of fun.
There's time for something deeper, too. Morning Bible studies and evening Vespers create opportunities to reflect, explore faith, and share meaningful conversations against the beautiful backdrop of Council Grove Lake.
Expect full days, memorable nights, and the kind of camp stories that get better every time they're told.

Be the Reason Someone Has the Summer of a Lifetime.
Sometimes, the moments that matter most at camp aren't the biggest adventures. They're the encouragement to try something difficult, the laughter shared around a campfire, or the feeling that someone genuinely believes in you.
Volunteers help make those moments possible.
By sharing your time, energy, and talents at Last Blast, you can help young people build confidence, strengthen friendships, and create memories that stay with them long after summer ends.
