Summer Camp and Retreat Center Lake Wales, Florida
Lake Aurora Christian Camp and Retreat Center is an extension of the Christian church dedicated to providing meaningful programs in a beautiful outdoor setting. It is a place where youth, adults, and families can take time to enrich their personal relationship with Christ, fellowship with each other, and prepare for service while discovering God’s will for their lives. In 1947 several supporting churches in Florida purchased 20 acres in the heart of Florida and held their first camp, a clearing in scrub oak woods on the edge of a spring-fed lake. Today the campus covers 73 acres and provides not only a summer camp for children, but offers family, adult, and professional seminars, retreats, and programs year around for all ages.
The chapel has been part of the Lake Aurora landscape for over 60 years. The first of the new buildings constructed was a spacious Dining Hall which comfortably seats 240 people. The original Lakeside Campus has ten cabin/dorms that accommodate up to 200 campers. The growing Hillside Campus currently has five cabins that can sleep up to 20 persons each. A new building now houses a Welcome Center and camp offices. Camp buildings provide air conditioned comfort.
