It has been the privilege of our family for nearly 40 years to accompany young hearts towards God through adventure, friendship, and fun! The Core Values of Camps Kahdalea and Chosatonga are Welcome Adventure, Be the One, We are a Family, Choose the Hard Right, and Encounter Faith. It is our conviction that kids need this formation more than ever! Thank you for the ways you’ve supported the mission of CKC!
As we give thanks to God for another safe and wonderful summer in our mountains, we share the joy of this photo gallery with our friends and camp families. We pray for all of our camp families and our extended community every week in our staff meetings and morning watches – please pray for us as well!
Until next summer – Have Fun!
Adam, John, and Jeffrey Trufant
“Words cannot express our gratitude for yet another unbelievable summer… [My husband and I] repeatedly discuss how there’s no decision we make that’s more important than the one we make to send them back to Kahdalea and Chosatonga. The growth, the joy, the friendships, the love, the faith, and the excitement they have after spending five weeks with you all could not be achieved in any other scenario, EVER, anywhere. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you do to shape them, believe in them, and love them. You all are the best at what you do. Thank you so much.”
“…my kids are still about 2 hours away from being “home” but I already know this was a summer that could potentially be unmatched for both of them. I’m so grateful for both of you for providing their second home where they can struggle, grow mentally/physically and most importantly spiritually.
There comes a time when your kids stop seeing you as the super human … parents have to find ways for their kids to get good people to look up to, and Kahdalea and Chos parents have it set… Thank you for providing the safe place my kids go to each summer- where the count down begins for the next year today- and the thing that gives them their landing spot each summer. Till 2026! ❤”
“I am so happy I agreed to send her to camp and I will definitely be sending her next year. I don’t think she will give me another choice. She had a BLAST. It sounded like a very safe and nurturing environment!”
“Thanks for continuing to be passionate about the mission and for cultivating a genuine love and concern for the campers as individuals.”
“Thank you, thank you and Thank YOU I will be signing-up [our son] again for 2026!”
“Thank you for the three magical weeks you provided! I’m pretty sure both girls think this has been there best year yet!“
Our Theme for 2025:
“Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give peace to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.” John 14:27
