Preparing For The Victorious Future

The goal of Camp American™ is to raise a core of knowledgeable, godly leaders for the 21st century. Camp American™ will help students and adults understand…

  • The US Constitution
  • The founders’ original intent
  • The Christian principles upon which the nation was built

Camp American™ is a one-week adventure designed to teach students (ages 12 to adult)…

  • The proper role of government
  • Principles of good government
  • History, civics and government from a Christian perspective.

Our team of outstanding instructors will help your child understand how American government is intended to operate, and how to become involved in the policy making process.

Camp American™ will also help your teen recognize and refute false teachings and morally bankrupt philosophies now so prevalent in American culture. Students will discover the deception of evolution, the importance of purity and morals in a free society, and the pagan connection to the radical environmental movement. Your teen will learn the importance of prayer and action. Most importantly, students will learn that in order to restore America, we must return America to Christ.


Camp American students will learn in a wholesome, beautiful lakeside setting, free from the influence of TV, radio and television. Best of all students will learn invaluable lessons that they will carry with them into adulthood. They will also build friendships and make memories that will last a lifetime.

Oh, yes. We almost forgot to mention that Camp American™ is also lots of fun! See the “Recreation” page for examples.

The 2010 Camp American™ is being held at Pokagon State Park in Angola IN June 13-19, 2010

Print This Post Print This Post

This is an 8 minute segment of a 110-minute class taught by Chuck Michaelis, Executive Director of Camp American and the Vice-chairman of the Institute For Principled Policy.

The class, taught at 2009′s Camp American, is entitled Crises, Coups and Constitutional Conventions. It details how a series of crises, both real and manufactured were used by men who wanted to eliminate the state governments (Nationalists) to call a constitutional convention in 1787 and how the men who wanted to preserve the authority of the individual states (Republicans) only by a hairsbreadth saved the United States from that fate and created the delegated powers and limited authority of that is the United States Constitution.

This class is a warning about crises are often created or made into something they are not in order to give the federal government more power.

Dr. Coffman was with us in 2008 (DVD’s of his classes are available HERE) and made the connection between property rights, stewardship and prosperity. He also explained the how the world-wide effort to convince the public of the reality of “man-made global warming” was, in reality, a push for government control of world economies through the control of energy availabilty. Dr. Coffman will be speaking on the meltdown of the “man-made global warming” hoax and what it means to globalist ambitions and how we can be involved.
