Location: SpringHill Camp - Evart, MI
Cost: $220
Snow Camp is our annual winter retreat for all of Lifeline Middle School students. This event is designed to allow students to bond and connect with their small group, and deepen their faith through a strong understanding of the grace we have been given, and how that connects with what we’ll be teaching for the rest of the year.
We will be returning to SpringHill camps for another amazing weekend filled with fun, tubing, worship, teaching, small group conversations and more.
This is an event that we bus students from Grand Rapids up to camp and back, so drop-off and pick-up will be here locally.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Students need to arrive at 6:00 PM to their designated Ada Bible Campus. Students who attend Lifeline at Cascade or Kentwood will be departing from the Cascade Campus. Students who attend Lifeline at Bella Vista, East Paris or Knapp Street will be departing from the Knapp Street Campus. Your student should eat dinner before arriving. They will be provided a light snack Friday night. We will leave promptly as soon as everyone arrives, with the hope to depart by 6:30 PM.
-
Students and leaders will check-in and leave from either the Cascade (if they attend Lifeline at Cascade or Kentwood) or Knapp Street (if they attend Lifeline at Bella Vista, East Paris or Knapp Street) campuses of Ada Bible Church. Students will arrive, check in on an iPad, get a nametag, and will board their designated bus.
-
We intend to be back to their designated campus by 1:15 PM on Sunday. There are a few factors including the weather, when we leave camp, and which location the bus is going to since they are all going to different campuses.
-
A complete packing list will be sent via email to those that have registered. Warm clothes (hats, gloves, coats) are a must as students will be walking to and from their cabins to session and meals as well as snow tubing and games outside.
-
Many cabins have a bath house next to the cabins but no bathrooms IN them. Only a few have bathrooms in the cabin itself.
-
We recommend students bring some spending money as there are other activities available for your students to participate in at Snow Camp that include a cost. There is also a SpringHill store (Trading Post), Snack Shack, or coffee shop that students may want to make purchases at.
-
We ask that phones stay at home. Middle School students will not be allowed on their phones. If we see one, we will hold on to it until we get back to campus.
-
We know life happens. If your student cannot attend Snow Camp, please let us know by January 17. If you let us know by this date, we can provide a full refund. Any drops after January 17 are non-refundable.
-
Our Med Team will have all of this information and Lifeline Staff will do our best to track down when students need their medication. Students are allowed to hold onto their meds if their parents agree to that during registration. We will provide leaders with appropriate medical information regarding their students so they can also keep track.
For any food allergies, there is a special request food window in the Dining Hall that can be accessed during each meal. SpringHill does a wonderful job of providing options for students. All information that was sent in registration will be provided to SpringHill to ensure everyone will have what they need at each meal.
-
There will be medical volunteers onsite, staying at camp 24/7 to oversee and assist in providing medication to students in need. In any emergency, 911 will be called. For any non-emergent issues, our medical team will assess and call parents to pick up your student if they are ill. We will always allow for students to reach out to parents in any event to discuss and make the decision to leave camp.
