CAMPERS
— 2023 Camp Dates
T.R.A.C. is sponsored by Crossroads Nazarene Church and takes place about 90 minutes north of Phoenix.
- Boys Camp: July 8th – 11th, 2023
- Girls Camp: July 13th – 16th, 2023
— Cost
The camper application gives information on funding. It is estimated to cost $425.00 per camper to attend; however, through fundraising efforts and a grant opportunity, it is our desire to have the camp fully funded. We don’t want cost to be a concern when it comes to getting a teen to camp. Please check the contact information below to contact Sandy, our Child Placement Coordinator, for more information.
— Deadlines
As of April 3rd, 2023, the Girls Camp is full while the Boys Camp still has room.
If you would like to be put on the waitlist for Girls Camp, please contact us and provide the names, birthdates, and gender of the campers that you would like to attend camp, or fill out an application. Please note that the youth needs to be 12 – 15 years of age to be put on the waitlist and attend camp.
Applications will be received on a first come, first serve basis until the FINAL DUE DATE of July 1st, 2023. Once the camp is full, new applicants will be on a waiting list and will fill in the available spots as they become available.

Important Information About Camp

T.R.A.C. (TEEN REACH ADVENTURE CAMP) is a camp experience especially designed for at-risk youth who may have experienced abuse, abandonment, neglect or other circumstances. The goal of each camp is to spend quality time with each teen, encouraging them to respect themselves and others, work as a team, have fun, be safe and make a difference.

Each camp is single gender, removing many behavioral issues due to puberty. Every camp has a behavioral specialist who works proactively to avoid behavioral issues that may arise

Each camp provides safe and appropriate supervision. Every precaution will be taken to protect teens from harm.

Volunteers must complete an interview, background check and mandatory training to comply with state requirements for working with adolescents. Counselors are paired with two teens. If possible, teens will be paired with their counselors from a previous year.

Each camp gives teens many opportunities to excel. Campers may experience hiking, archery, swimming, fishing, canoes and more. Challenge Course provides a time to learn communication, solve problems and develop trust. Great food, a talent show and fun evening activities are always a favorite for our campers!

Every camp has medical personnel available to administer first aid and medication to teens as directed by their physicians. All medications will be kept with the camp nurse in a safe, locked, confidential location. MEDICATIONS MUST BE IN ORIGINAL PRESCRIPTION BOTTLES FROM PRESCRIBING PHYSICIAN. THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO GIVE “MEDICATION VACATIONS”.

Every youth is offered complete confidentiality. No volunteers will bring cameras except for the camp photographer who will take pictures for each teen’s photo album, including a picture of each teen with their counselor and of camp activities. Our volunteers are instructed not to exchange addresses, phone numbers or email addresses with any teen. All T.R.A.C. promotional videos/pictures will be edited for confidentiality by blocking out or blurring faces.
