ABOUT US
Salem Acres was registered in 1978. The founders, John Adams and Herb Styles, had two complementary visions – to provide a farm home for young men who had been in trouble with the law and to establish a Christian camp.
Both sides of that vision have been realized. Until 1998, Salem Acres operated a residential program for troubled young men. Soon there was a shift to working with younger people and emphasizing prevention before serious trouble occurred, and a camp vision emerged...

What People Say About Us
Jason Koleba
Lead Pastor,
Cochrane Alliance Church
God is using Salem Acres Camp in the lives of our students. Some have been won to Jesus. Others have had their faith in Jesus stretched. Still others are learning to lead like him. This happens as they experience summer camps, attend youth retreats on-site, and participate in leadership development programs like LEAD and the Timothy Project. We see the impact long after the week (or weekend) is over.
Craig Funston
Director,
Compass Call
Salem Acres was a wonderful venue for Chronicles, a weekend event on Christian history. Everything about the weekend was great: food, accommodations, recreational options, and teaching room. We ran a week-long school there years ago, and now have come back for what we trust is a long-term commitment on both our parts, Salem Acres and Compass Call (www.compasscall.ca), the grassroots Bible school that I represent. I would highly recommend Salem Acres to anyone who needs a reasonably-price, fully-equipped, easily-accessible "spiritual oasis."
Jason Dimnik
Pastor of Student Ministries,
Cochrane Alliance Church
We have used Salem Acres many times for off-season youth retreats. Each year, our youth greatly anticipate the weekends at camp . The new upgraded facilities are fantastic. Students love the wide-open space outside for games and activities along with the new cabins, games room, and chapel area. And the food is awesome too!
