Assistant Camp Manager

White Mills Christian Camp has been providing Christian camp experiences for over 75 years. Each summer we host around 1400 campers for our summer programs and then move into retreat season in August. We are owned and supported by over 50 Christian Churches stretching from Louisville, KY to Nashville, TN. They all work together to make camp happen each summer.

White Mills is a very small community but very active. The two churches work together to help the local schools and families in need. If a small country church isn’t what you’re looking for there are 3 other Christian Churches in the area. We are respected in the community and strive to be a part of community activities. We host the annual White Mills Day festival, provide our storm shelters to the community when needed, and are a partner with the Red Cross to provide emergency shelters.
