Camp Description:
The Sammamish Bible Camp Association (SAMBICA) began as a young people’s conference in 1919. Founded by members of the Swedish Tabernacle Church, SAMBICA is now a not-for-profit, non-denominational Christian camp and conference center. Over the last 83 years, SAMBICA has gone through many phases of growth and development to achieve the current level of high quality programs that benefit our campers and the surrounding community. SAMBICA is no longer a remote camp nestled in the woods; it is now immersed in suburbia. SAMBICA’s 30+ buildings are spread over 11 acres on the shores of Lake Sammamish in Bellevue, Washington. Today, SAMBICA offers youth summer camps, retreat ministries, and before and after school childcare. SAMBICA provides both resident camps, day camps, and a high school leadership program (ELITE) during the summer months. Approximately 70 staff members are hired each summer to run the camp operations in roles such as counselors, lifeguards, boat drivers, and kitchen staff. Over 2,000 children attend SAMBICA’s summer programs each year.
