For all parents sending your kids there for camp. They are not explicitly informing you but they are letting trans children choose where they can sleep. With your sons or daughters. Not ok. Ever.

★★★★★Haley Wiley

My journey with Camp Hardtner has spanned nearly 30 years. I am deeply connected to the wonder that this place holds for so many. It was my favorite place growing up and where I spent the better part of two decades growing in faith and community. This place and its people have taught me so many important things, and still does to this day. I look forward to bringing my daughter to her first session this Summer!

Camp Hardtner is such a wonderful place to unplug from the world and renew your spirit in friendship with others, the beauty of God’s creation and having fun. It has fundamentally shaped who I am. I could not be more grateful for my time and the friendships made at Hardtner. Camp Hardtner hired experienced, loving, fun, creative and responsible young adults to execute their summer camping program. Rest assured that your children will be will cared for and have a wonderful experience.

★★★★★Lisa Hightower

Camp Hardtner has been a family tradition for three generations. It is truly a magical place. Summer camp at Hardtner is my daughter's favorite time of the year and every time she speaks about camp she mentions how much she loves the food, especially the Shepherd's Pie. I fell in love with Hardtner in 1984 and it remains one of my favorite places on earth. Camp Hardtner is a wonderful place for worship and fun in a loving environment.

★★★★★Emily Maier

Camp Hardtner is a bastion of wholesome fun and godly play. I attended as a camper as a child and now I’m happy to be able to send my own children here to bask in the light of God’s love, embodied by the amazing counselors and beautiful campus.
