Jr. High Winter Retreat

Ignite Retreat

Mark Your Calendars

February 2027

Ignite is Camp Otyokwah's winter retreat for Jr. High students (grades 6–8). It is a time to step away from your busy, distracted life and take a breath. We invite students to come for a spiritual retreat — to renew their relationship with God in a personal and powerful way.

In just one weekend we will challenge campers with God's word, share the love of Jesus Christ, and worship together. All the while we will be having fun building relationships, playing games, and eating great food.

Whether you are a returning camper or joining us for the first time, Ignite is a great opportunity to grow in your faith and make lasting friendships!

The Cost

The registration cost of Ignite is TBD for early registration.

TBD for registration after the early deadline.
