Program

Boys Ages 7-14 are welcome. The goal of the Calvinist Cadet Corps is to help boys grow spiritually in all areas of life (devotional, mental, physical and social) by providing Christian men as models and mentors helping the boys in a uniquely designed structure, program and materials.

Boys and their counsellors work side by side on Bible lessons, Christian service projects, outdoor activities (camping, cycling, hiking, canoeing, and much more), and working on merit badge projects -- selecting from a wide range of interests and skills.

More than 95 merit badges are offered in this program. The counsellor challenges, guides, encourages, listens, and counsels the boys as an expression of God's love.
