CYO Summer Program at Camp Lawrence

CYO Summer Program at Camp Lawrence Registrations are being accepted NOW! http://www.cyocamplawrence.com Welcome to Camp Lawrence's home on Facebook! We look forward to seeing this summer!

We hope your time spent here will inspire you to visit us at our real home just north of Valparaiso, Indiana. Or if you are already one of the family, spend some time reliving memories sharing the Camp Lawrence Spirit. Since opening in 1959, Camp Lawrence has been home to over 40,000 children from as close as Valparaiso, Indiana to as far as Texas and Alaska, as well as from around the world. Open

to children ages 7 to 14, this resident camp has enabled youth to experience the wonders of the great outdoors in a Catholic Christian environment. Through the guidance of trained counselors, the youth grow physically, intellectually and spiritually as they share adventures sitting by the campfire, going on a nature hike, swimming, creating works of art, plus playing sports and so much more. To learn more about CYO Camp Lawrence explore our website www.nwicyo.org.

We wish we could linger a little longer…but, just like that, our season has come to a close, and we’re all packed up and moved out of Camp. Thank you to everyone who shared their incredible kids with us, who interacted with this page, or who supported us in ANY way this summer. We love you, and we’re already counting down the days to Summer 2025! 💛

It has sure been a holiday-packed week here at Camp! Yesterday, we celebrated a hoppy Easter with a canteen Easter egg hunt, followed by a Thanksgiving friendship bracelet pass at dinner! This morning, we woke up at the stroke of midnight for a Midnight Mass to kick off our busy Christmas Day! We have a talent show and Christmas party ahead of us tonight, and maybe we’ll even have a special guest in a red suit drop by! 😊🎄🎁⛄️🎅❄️🎉

Last night was a VERY eventful night at Camp!!! 💍💕

Our program co-director Chimp had a very special surprise guest (Falcon, our former Camp nurse,) who had a very important question to ask her! The energy in the Nature Pavilion was UNREAL, and we were all so excited to be part of the big moment.

Congratulations, Chimp and Falcon!!! ❤️🥹

Yesterday’s weather was so beautiful for our 2024 CARNIVAL! 🎪🤹‍♀️🎟️🍿🤡🎡🍧

From cotton candy and snow cones to games and face painting, our campers had a BLAST! We wrapped up the night calming down with a movie night in the cafeteria. We’re sad to see this group go tomorrow, but we know they’re excited to see you all at home! ❤️

The storms can’t keep away our fun here at Camp! ☀️

Yesterday, we tie-dyed, sang liturgy songs, built wigwams at Nature, and went on a counselor “hunt” in our cafeteria. Even when the storms rolled through last night, we kept the good times going in our emergency safety locations! We sang songs, played games, and kept everyone calm until we were all clear.

This morning, we jumped right back into our plans and declared a CAMP COLOR WAR!!! Follow along for more photos from our competition today! ❤️💙💛💚

Hello Carnival Week Families!

The Tornado Warning has ended and everyone is safe and sound! Our campers are now returning to their bunks to get a good night’s sleep! We will continue to monitor throughout the night and continue to keep our families updated! Thank you all for your messages and support! Our campers and staff are incredible! 😄

Hello Carnival Week Families!

We are posting to keep our families updated on our weather emergency procedures! Our campers are currently safe and cozy in their cabins after a long fun day! In the case of weather emergencies, such as severe storms or a tornado warning, we will immediately move campers into our emergency locations on camp! Our protocol includes moving our campers to the windowless bathrooms and sheltering in place with mattresses. We have seen many storms over the years at Camp Lawrence and our staff is well prepared to keep our campers safe, calm, and happy. We will continue to keep families updated through our page throughout the night and will also be available by our camp phone (219)546-7198! If you have any questions or concerns throughout the night please do not hesitate to reach out!
