What a week!
Our HBC Youth Summer Trip 2026 was packed with adventure, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime.
We kicked things off in Charlotte with a Charlotte Knights baseball game and our first Bible study together. From there, the fun only grew. Students spent a day at Carrigan Farms making jump after jump into the quarry swimming hole, encouraging one another, conquering fears, and creating memories they'll be talking about for years.
We also enjoyed a slower day exploring the beautiful campus and botanical gardens at UNC Charlotte, complete with plenty of laughs. And we wrapped up our final full day at the U.S. National Whitewater Center with rafting, adventure, and more unforgettable moments together.
More important than any activity, we're thankful for the friendships that were strengthened, the conversations that were had, and the opportunities our students had to grow in their faith throughout the week.
A huge thank you to our volunteers and leaders who invested their time and energy into making this trip possible. We are grateful for each student who came and can't wait to see how God continues to work in their lives.
