Camp Abbey

Camp Abbey is based in the Covington region, north of Lake Pontchartrain. This is a Catholic camp that passes on the lessons of the church to its young attendees.

Though the camp follows traditional Catholic teachings, this is a very forward-thinking organization. In fact, Camp Abbey has made something of a comeback, originally operating between 1960 and 2006 before returning to its current form.

You can see some of their posts on social media channels to get a feel for what the camp atmosphere is like. There are separate boys' and girls' overnight camps that last a week.

Their on a mission to share the Catholic faith with younger people while giving them the opportunity to find out new things about themselves.
