At Lutheran Valley Retreat, one of the values we hold closely in our camp programs is the 5 C’s that sets the stage for the week of camp.  One of these 5 c’s is “challenge”. This principle recognizes that every child grows at a different pace and in different ways. It provides a safe and supportive environment where campers are encouraged—but never forced—to step out of their comfort zone through the fear zone into their challenge change zone.
