Circle Square Ranch is a Christian summer camp offering memorable overnight and day camps. We specialize in offering a multi-level horsemanship program – with decades of experience teaching everyone from total beginners to advanced riders. Aside from the barn, campers can enjoy swimming, high/low ropes, climbing, archery, campfires, tomahawks and many other activities instructed by passionate and qualified leaders. We offer dynamic leadership programs for ages 13 -16. Our programs, including age-appropriate Bible discussions, are designed to give campers opportunities to grow spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. We are prioritizing safety and excited to have campers join us again.
InterVarstiy Circle Square Ranch Grand River was founded in the 1970s as a program of Crossroads Christian Communications TV program, Circle Square. The popularity of the show created an initial interest in the camp programs, though in time the quality of the camps themselves were the draw independent of it. In 2011 Circle Square was bought by InterVarsity, becoming one of nine camps that organization runs across the country. Begun 1929, the InterVarsity camps contribute to the goal of creating unique opportunities to bring young people together around the personal challenges that a camp setting can provide. At camp kids unplug and turn their attention to the community they find there. The activities facilitate a greater understanding of campers’ talents and abilities, as well as the Christian values that inform the programming. The equestrian programs at Circle Square date back to the camp’s founding four decades ago; as strong as ever, they are a particular draw for many of the families that enrol here.
We can't wait to be back on horses and with campers.
If 2020 has taught us one thing, it's that we need to stay flexible. As a result, we've: -delayed registration -planned with flexibility in mind -updated health and safety protocols -explored reduction in camper capacity -modified activities
Safety and training have always been a priority for us, but in 2021, they take on a new dimension. Here is what we are doing to ensure camper safety: -public health guidelines will be met or exceeded -staff training will include enhanced health and safety training -contact tracing protocols may be initiated -COVID-19 and symptom management and care measures will be established.
We are looking forward to creatively welcoming campers back on 2021. We will keep camper families and registrants updated as plans progress.
