Alta Mons is the outdoor ministry of the Valley Ridge District of the United Methodist Church and encompasses over 850 acres of beautiful land in Shawsville, VA. Every year we have summer camp, which offers week, half-week, or day-long camping experiences for youth from kindergarten through 12th grade. Throughout the week our chaplain speaks to the campers about Christian topics like prayer, the church, and the love of Jesus. At night campers worship together around a campfire. Campers experience small group bonding with their units during arts and crafts, field games, and sessions at the Nature Hut.  Each Wednesday all resident campers participate in Home in the Woods, where campers and staff set up campsites, cook their dinner over a fire, and sleep under the stars. Every camper receives a camp t-shirt (included with the cost of registration) that they will tie dye during their time at camp. Don’t miss out on the experience of a lifetime—register today!

Fear and failure are the building blocks of our sport, so athletes will refine their personal process to overcome adversity and gain confidence through their acquisition of new skills. Our goal is to allow athletes to push the boundaries of their comfort zone in a safe and fun environment. Divers will learn the fundamentals of the sport through various challenges and games to create a fun experience. We are extremely fortunate to train out of the Christiansburg Aquatic Center, which is one of two facilities in the state of Virginia with a full stack of diving platforms (5 meter, 7.5 meter, and 10 meter) and is also equipped with two 1 meter springboards, two 3 meter springboards, and a trampoline with a spotting rig. Not only do we have an exceptional facility to train out of, but our coaching staff have national coaching experience as well as international athletic experience.
