BUILD UP CAMP SONSHINE
BROADEN THE IMPACT OF MAKING MEMORIES, CHANGING LIVES

Master Site Plans
Through our work with a site development specialist, we have created a long range master plan to guide our growth into the future. It will take over 11 Million Dollars to complete everything proposed on the site plan. The Camp Sonshine Board of Directors has selected what it believes to be the most pressing and important projects for the first phase of this multi-year endeavor.
Camp Sonshine History
Camp Sonshine Master Plan
PHASE 1 CAMP SONSHINE REC CENTER & ADDITION OF THIRD LOCATION
The original plan in growing Camp Sonshine’s capacity was to build a much bigger multi-use facility at Camp Sonshine. Due to COVID, a pause in fundraising, and the spike in building costs, we are grateful the Lord provided a even better solution for our growing family of campers. For the same campaign price of $3.5 million, we are able to scale the gym back and add an entire 3rd location at Camp Sonshine – Shiloh complete with 17,000 square-foot facility & 100 acres of land.
Proposed Updates and Additions @ Sonshine – New Multipurpose Building with Gym, Climbing Wall & Stage, New Nana’s Snack Shack, Multiple Group Pavilions, New Entry Gate & Signage, Amphitheater, Expanded Splash Park, Hiking & Nature Trails, Improved Landscape, Additional Parking Lots, New Perimeter Road & Driveways
Proposed Updates and Additions @ Solaris – New Multipurpose Building with Tornado Shelter, Improve Pond for Swimming Area & Water Recreation, New Gathering Area with Covered Pavilion, Enhanced Landscaping, New & Improved Driveways and Parking, Front Entries Added on Buildings
Newest Location – Shiloh! – To keep up with growth of day camp programs, Camp Sonshine – Shiloh was purchased in 2021 and hosted summer day camp for inaugural year in 2022!
PHASE 2 SOLARIS LODGE
Before this summer, I always thought of myself as one of the least likely of leaders and not outgoing in any way.
The Camp Sonshine experience has grown and changed me in ways I could not expect. I have learned that I can be a leader and that I actually enjoy it. I feel more at ease with myself and who I am. I’ve learned more about myself this summer than I have in years. This summer has given me an even bigger heart for children and knowledge of how to love them. I’ve learned how to truly be brave.
