Both one-week (ME3) and two-week (SB2W) camps have the same purpose and many of the same activities. Two-week camps give campers and counselors additional time to develop relationships and connect more deeply than in a one-week camp. Two weeks also allow more time to develop skills and make tangible progress in the various sports and activities, as well as mix in a variety of special activities like an overnight camping trip, track meet, and swim meet. Especially for campers who return year after year, camp becomes a truly life- changing experience. 2026 Camp Sessions Offered: ✅  SB2W (Suffolk) Dates: SB2W June 15 - 26, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Kempsville -  Virginia Beach) Dates: June 15 - 19, 2026 ✅  SB2W (Ghent - Norfolk) Dates: June 22 - July 3, 2026 ✅  SB2W (Red Mill - Virginia Beach) Dates: July 6 - 17, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Great Bridge - Chesapeake) Dates: July 20 - 24, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Newtown - Virginia Beach) Dates: July 20 - 24, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Indian River) Dates: June 30 - July 3, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Hampton) Dates: July 27 - 31, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Portsmouth) Dates: July 27 - 31, 2026 ✅  ME3 (Eastern Shore) Dates: August 3 - 7, 2026 Learn more, and register for 2026 Summer sessions today! Competition brings out the worst in many of us, kids and adults alike. We can quickly become self-centered, angry, and unreasonable. Many of us may have been told or have told our kids or others to "just be a little less competitive."  But competitiveness is woven into the fabric of our very nature. What if there was a better way? What if our competitiveness was re-directed to honor God in all of our efforts and to care more about others than ourselves?  SB2W uses sports to train kids at how to win and lose, succeed and fail, in a way that honors God and respects others, following the motto: "God first, others second, I'm third." Each day, campers will learn the basics and develop skills in some of these sports, have an interactive Bible lesson on some aspect of Christian competition, and compete as a team in one of the sports.
