About the Southern Baptist Camping Association

Thousands of people of all ages encounter Christ each year in Christian camping. The Southern Baptist Camping Association (SBCA) is dedicated to supporting campingĀ  organizations and conference centers to provide networking and resources to promote the growth of Christian camping.

The History of the SBCA

SBCA was established as a 501(c)3 in 1999 with the purpose to educate regarding effective management of Southern Baptist camps and conference centers through a variety of seminar-style programs; to provide Christian inspiration through worship, fellowship, sharing of experiences, and prayer for one another; and to grow in love and appreciation for one another in the unique ministries that are shared.
