Cho- Yeh Summer Christian Camp opens activities to the entire family for one day

Cho- Yeh, a premier Christian summer camp and retreat center is letting adults join in on the fun for a day. On Sunday, April 15 families can experience what one of the best Christian youth camps has to offer at “Family Fun Day.” 

For some parents, sending a child off to a summer camp they have never seen, for the first time can be nerve racking. Cho- Yeh’s Family Fun Day allows parents to meet the staff, see the facilities and get a feeling about what the camp is all about. Parents can take tours throughout the day and see some of the cabins, dining halls and activities.

Families can partake in activities such as climbing the rockwall, screaming down the zipline, feeling the rush of playing paintball and flying off “the blob.” Whether families are looking into summer camps in Texas or simply want to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the camp and spend time outside, Family Fun Day will live up to its name. 

In 2011, more than 800 families came to Family Fun Day. There is no registration or fee. For the complete schedule, see bellow: 

10:30 a.m.  Gates Open
