We cordially invite you to our much-awaited annual open house on June 3rd! It's an excellent opportunity to get a sneak peek of what life at camp is like and spend a delightful day with your loved ones.
We Need Volunteers For the Open House
We've got an amazing opportunity to make our Open House the best one yet, and we want YOU to be a part of it! We're on the lookout for enthusiastic volunteers to help with everything from cooking up a storm and running exciting games, to preparing our camp and tidying up afterwards. If you're ready to take on this exciting challenge, get in touch with Kirk today and let him know that you're eager to lend a hand!
Work Bees
We wanted to extend an invitation to you for a fun and productive work bee on May 27th and June 17th. We have a ton of exciting projects to tackle as we gear up for summer, and we would be thrilled to have your help, no matter your skill level. Plus, we'll make sure to provide plenty of yummy food for all our hardworking volunteers. We appreciate you taking the time to consider this awesome opportunity to make a real difference. Thanks!
Summer Volunteers
Hey there! We're on the lookout for volunteers who want to help spread God's love to kids and can spare a week or two to assist at camp. It's an amazing opportunity to make a difference in the lives of young people and grow spiritually yourself. If you're interested in joining us, just let us know! We'd love to have you be a part of this important ministry.

Financial Assistance
Don't Let Price Hold You Back!
At Salem Acres, we believe that every kid should have the opportunity to come to camp. That's why we are always looking for ways to help families come to camp by offering payment plans, early-bird discounts, family discounts, bring a friend bonus, being a new camper bonus, and camper subsidies.
Send a Kid to Camp
Our subsidy fund is completely funded by donations given to Salem Acres by those who have enjoyed their time at Camp and want to share the experience with others. We want to use our funds to help as many children come to Camp as possible and would love for you to join us in making that happen.
Prayer Requests
We would greatly appreciate your support through prayer. Here are some things to keep in mind.
For God to move powerfully in the Salem Acres organization; raising up people to do the work He has laid out for us. That our young people would grow closer to Him through their time here. That our seasonal staff would be preparing for a summer of ministry, and that our on-site staff would remember to be continually centred on God.
We're able to find all the volunteers that we need to run all the camps that we have planned
The outdoor cabins are completed before the summer.
We get more people coming out to the Open House
Have more registrations and start to see full camps
Preparing the hearts and messages of the speakers coming each week
That we don't lose focus on why we-do-what-we-do at a very busy time of the season.
