Polar Plunge at Twin Lakes

Winter Weekend Retreat

Polar Plunge at Twin Lakes is located at Twin Lakes Camp and Conference Center. Nestled quietly amongst the trees in central Mississippi,  this retreat has a true camp feel. Polar Plunge is an exciting twist on the YCM summer camp experience that is so well known and loved. This is our newest camp offering for both middle and high school students, a winter weekend retreat to getaway and dive into the Word, worship, teaching and being together as a group. Be ready for incredible teaching, amazing recreation, bonfires, indoor (or outdoor) snowball fights and of course a real Polar Plunge! It’s a mini summer camp in the middle of winter!
