Running a summer camp takes a lot of different supplies and equipment. At Camp Oak Hills, we've put together a list of items that will need to be purchased for different areas of our programming this summer. If you feel led to buy something off of this list to help support our summer ministry and offset some of our expenses, we would be so grateful!

Purchased items will be shipped directly to Camp, and we will be updating the list regularly as we think of more things to add. Thank you for your support of Camp Oak Hills!
