Shekinah Village is a 35-acre Christian youth camp and retreat in Partridge in the Appalachian Mountains, run by Meridzo Center Ministries. Each summer it hosts two four-night overnight camps for local 6th-12th graders plus several day camps open to a wider age range, mixing games, Bible study and worship with fishing, horseback riding, hiking, archery, riflery and crafts. Specialized horse camps are also offered at its on-site stables.

★★★★★Vickie PinkleyThis is a great kids and youth camp in the summer. They also have cabins for rent year round. The Bunk House is wonderful for retreats of all kind. Shekinah Village also makes a fantastic wedding venue.
