2024 Camping Ministry

The United Methodist camping program is offering more than 100 different camp events at three locations this summer. Our church’s Camp Ministry Team provides “Camperships” for members or attendees at Dutilh. Camperships are $300 for a full-week camp and $150 for mini-camps.

Who can attend: Camps are designed for all ages—preschool through adults—including several family camps. Each site also offers at least one camp for campers with physical or developmental challenges.

To apply for a Campership: Participants must first register for the desired camp via each camp’s independent website. Next, they must submit the completed Campership Form to Dutilh Church:

Camp locations

Jumonville: Beautiful mountain-top setting just east of Uniontown, PA, and about a 90-minute drive from Cranberry Township.


Camp Allegheny: 300+ acres in the Laurel Highlands on Rt. 30, about a half-hour east of Ligonier, PA, and about a two-hour drive from Cranberry Township.


Wesley Woods: Enjoy the beautiful countryside and forest in northwest Pennsylvania, near Titusville. It’s approximately a two-hour drive from Cranberry Township.

Campership Form

Please return the Campership Form to the church office or email it to Heather Shoffstall.

  • Dutilh will send the scholarship amount to the camp directly. You will be notified once the Campership is paid.

  • Please be sure to pay the balance of the camp cost at that time.

  • Camperships are limited to one per person per summer.

How You Can Help

Be a Ministry Partner

Dutilh Church’s Camp Fund is a ministry that touches the lives of dozens of children and youth. In the 2023 camping season, our Camp Fund supported:

  • Camperships: EIGHT children & teens from Dutilh Church attended a camp.

  • FISH & DSM Camp: We supported 52 kids & teens, along with adult leaders, for this four-day camp.

  • HOPE Camp: We sent 10 children & teens from at-risk, low-income communities to HOPE Camp.

  • MHY Family Services: We sent 29 children & teens.

  • Autism Initiative: We provided a “camp buddy” (support-staff person for special-needs campers) for Jumonville’s Autism Initiative.

Your gifts to the General Fund support these outreach efforts. Financial gifts of any size are welcome. In 2023, the Camp Fund was fully funded through Dutilh Church’s annual budget. If you donated to the Camp Fund in the past, please continue to do so through the General Fund and your regular giving. Thank you!
