Camps
Lake Shetek is located an hour and a half northeast of Sioux Falls near Slayton, Minn. Shetek offers a one-day, three-day or five-day camp that provides an abundance of outdoor fun, small and large group activities and hands-on learning for kids from first through fifth grade.

NeSoDak is a safe place for youth to make friends, develop social skills and live in a grace-filled community as they learn about Christ’s love for them--all while enjoying a week at the lake with a caring, well trained, energetic, fun-loving staff. A week at NeSoDak is the beginning of many wonderful outdoor ministry memories. NeSoDak is on the shores of a pristine glacial lake near Waubay, S.D.
