What people are saying about Barefoot Republic...

Barefoot Republic Camp is not just a camp but a minute by minute, summer by summer, year by year statement proclaiming God's glory in the unique celebration of each child that attends while at the same time bringing so many different children together as one. It is a challenge to each of us to pursue loving our neighbors as God commands us and an encouragement that it is possible and necessary to live out this love. I can't wait to send my daughter there!

If you are looking for a camp that is deliberate in its pursuit of kingdom principals and cultural diversity, look no further. …Barefoot Camp is ahead of the curve when it comes to making a difference in the lives of kids of all races.

In the past seven years, we have sent several of our students to Barefoot Republic Camp - to the person, they have returned glowing about their experiences. They love the worship, the speakers, the activities, and being around high-energy, high-quality adults who have showered them with affection. In a word, they have returned hopeful.

…I am encouraging our middle school and high school students to attend Barefoot Republic Camp. It will provide one of the things many of them have not experienced - a friendship with people from other backgrounds. I see this as a huge opportunity for growth for our students- as well as for the young adults who will be counselors.

We have been working with Barefoot Republic now for two years. We fully support and believe in Barefoot Republic's vision and in all that they do. It is a great honor to be linked up with a camp that genuinely cares about the campers and gives everyone a chance to come and be a part of a week long experience regardless of race, social or economic status.
