Every year, hundreds of students in elementary, middle, and high schools
from throughout the Twin Cities attend Concordia Academy Camps,
learning to use their talents to shine while they strengthen skills,
build relationships, gain knowledge, and make new friends.
Students will get opportunities to dance, run, shoot, score, sing, paint,
investigate, bake, repair, act, pitch, bat, lift, grow, explore, create,
worship...and have the times of their lives.
At CA, we are committed to Honoring God Through Excellence,
and that commitment is at the center of all of our camps.
All of our camps are held on the Concordia Academy campus, located at
2400 North Dale Street in Roseville, just north of Highway 36 and Dale St.
