Black Hills Bible Camp 2026
Being known by God and knowing we belong to Him
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you.
— Jeremiah 1:5
I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.
— 1 John 5:13
Due to the continued number of measles cases nationwide and regionally in 2026, it is requested that each camper provides a copy of their complete immunization record upon arrival at BHBC this year. To be clear, no one will be turned away based on immunization status. These records are being requested based on healthcare provider recommendations and guidance from the SD Dept of Health.
This is a precautionary measure to best equip camp leadership with information to assure that everyone has a safe camp week. If you have difficulty obtaining these records, please make note of whether your child is up to date on childhood vaccines (specifically 2 doses of MMR) and send this note with your child to camp. In the event that your child becomes ill or is exposed to another camper suspicious of measles illness, we will contact you regarding next steps per Department of Health recommendations.
Thank you for partnering with us to make camp safe and fun for everyone in 2026!
