A Place Apart…
“Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”
Jesus knew the importance of time away, apart from the constant blur of the everyday. Camp Hanover is one of those “quiet places.” Things are different here.
This is a place where Christ-centered community is nurtured. Where you can experience God’s presence in the natural world. And where central Virginians have a unique opportunity to gather in “a place apart.”
Come, your invitation awaits…

WHAT OTHERS SAYÂ ABOUT CAMP HANOVER…
I always feel good about leaving my children at Camp Hanover. In our experience, it has always been a safe, loving and nurturing environment.”
“My daughter enjoyed her first time at camp. You did a great job looking over the campers when dangerous weather moved in.”
“I was so impressed with the personal manner in which my child and her needs were attended to from the very beginning. The counselors were wonderful!
“I can’t say enough about how good it was to see counselors playing with the campers, being silly with them in appropriate ways. Loved watching the counselors dive into the mud slide with the campers! Healthy, active, outdoors, silly when appropriate, listening when needed, this is the experience I want my children to have!”
“I have been singing Camp Hanover’s praises since my child came home. Camp was a turning poin in shaping who he is, gaining confidence and realizing his strengths.”
