Camp Golden Timbers is a five day, four night camp held in Pinecrest. This is a volunteer-run camp that serves campers from K-12th grade. Programs are tailored to specific age groups and include: crafts, target sports, songs, canoes, horseback riding, games, back to the basics, nature, and more. Campers sleep in cabins with cabin leaders, however, 6th grade campers get to experience the true camping experience in tents. Seniors and above, while still being able to participate in all the fun activities camp has to offer, are Counselors-in-Training and will assist other cabin leaders and camp directors in the running of camp. The theme this year is "Camp Golden Timbers - Light, Camera, Animation."
