We stayed at the Guest House of the camp for a week while engaged in a ministry to children in Hyannis for a week. It was a comfortable stay at very reasonable rates.
We did not see Camp Good News' camping program in action, but we had good conversations about it with the assistant director. The camp has been in operation since 1935 and aims to reach children who have little to no knowledge of the Christian faith through camping activities (waterfront, athletic, woods, crafts, etc, and through talks to groups and conversations with counselors. It can serve up to 200 campers, although summer attendance is averaging about 100 per summer. The setting is beautiful and the facilities, although rustic, are in good shape.
I am glad that the camp exists and I am looking forward to learning more about it and its work in the coming years.

An absolutely wonderful Christian summer camp! I was a counselor here back in the 80s. I was recruited to the camp by Gertrude Wunsch, a professor from Anderson University. The camp is surrounded by acres of pristine woods and the waterfront is spectacular. But best of all, the counselors teach kids about Christ! Your kids will love it here.

I worked at Camp Good News during the summers as a college student ('73-76). It was an experience that had a tremendous impact on my life and I know it had a powerful impact on the kids that went there. Great memories. CGN is a magical place!

Camp Good News was a life changing place for me. Besides being really fun, it was where I really took hold of my Faith in Jesus. I learned to swim, learned archery, arts and crafts, how to build a campfire, and met my best friend who is still my best friend to this day.
