Why is camp important?
A camp experience can be one of the most powerful and formative times in one’s life. Camp can often be the first opportunity for kids to develop their “unique voice” that will serve them throughout their lives. Discovering leadership potential, experiencing an intentional Christian community, discovering the outdoors, building self-esteem, and strengthening personal faith are all central to what the camp experience is all about. Plus, it’s just plain fun!
Twinlow Camp was created to offer outdoor and retreat ministry to all people and campers. Gifts to Twinlow help ensure that we are around for another 86 years. The gifts go directly to keeping camp affordable for our families, improving services to campers and guests, providing safe and comfortable facilities, and providing relevant and engaging programs.
How it works:
Twinlow is a non-profit organization associated with the United Methodist Church. Give with confidence knowing Twinlow is an American Camp Association accredited camp. Also, your gifts are always tax deductible.

Help us make sure all kids can come to camp!
At Twinlow we are blessed to offer opportunities for campers from Idaho, Washington, and even some from other states to grow personally and spiritually. The biggest challenge we run into with this each year is there are many campers who would benefit from time spent at camp but they come from families who are challenged financially to make it happen.
With the generous support from you and others like you we are able to offer Camper Scholarships known as “Camperships” to assist these families in covering the costs of camp. It is our goal to raise $10,000 to fill our campership funds so that no camper might be turned away due to financial reasons. While the average cost to a family to send their camper to Twinlow is about $450, any amount you can give will make a big difference!
Twinlow Shower House Project
For nearly 100 years Twinlow has been providing campers and guests with an opportunity to connect with God through connecting to God’s creation by escaping to the wilderness. As society has changed, so has our needs and expectations for hygiene care and facilities to complete this care within. Because of that the Twinlow Board of Directors has been working with the Twinlow staff to fundraise money to replace our current showerhouses with a new build that will:
- Increase our capacity by adding 8 more toilets and 4 more showers;
- Align with our commitment to creation care through being able to use more eco-friendly equipment;
- Decrease our repair costs by having this facility be insulated and usable year-round, minimizing the chance for needed pipe repairs;
- Show our committment to another 100 years of ministry at Twinlow.
By using the PayPal link on this page you can give a tax-deductible donation to help us reach our ultimate goal of $500,000 raised for this project. Currently we have received $340,000 in donations from generous friends and supporters of Twinlow Camp. Our current plans include demolition of the current shower houses, expected to begin within the next few weeks, followed by getting the base work done before the deep freeze of Winter. We expect this project will be completed in time for use in late Spring/early Summer 2027.
