INTERVARSITY ALUMNI & FRIENDS CAMP
JULY 5-10, 2027
SUMMER 2027 REGISTRATION IS OPEN!
CONTINUING THE LEGACY OF DISCIPLESHIP AT CAMPUS BY THE SEA
InterVarsity Alumni & Friends Camp continues the tradition of manuscript Bible study and invites families and singles to join in and make space for God to speak. This program offers an inductive Bible study for adults in place of a speaker. Developed by InterVarsity, the manuscript Bible study approach invites participants to explore Scripture together through careful observation, thoughtful questions, and meaningful discussion. We offer age-based programs for kids 0-18, so all ages can explore God’s word in ways relevant to their stage of life. And there will be lots of time for family fun and adventure!
Rob Dixon will return as the InterVarsity Program Director for 2027. Expect insightful teaching for adults, friendly camp staff to lead your kids, and a range of activities found only at Campus by the Sea. Join us and discover why InterVarsity alumni return year after year for the intentional faith and unique fun that only happens here at Campus by the Sea.
To register, complete our registration form below.

Alumni camp has become an important and wonderful part of my family's summer rhythm. The week at CBS is a time of family bonding, spiritual growth, connecting with friends and playing! My kids love their age-appropriate group and camp activities and leave the week feeling encouraged in their faith journeys. My husband and I appreciate the space to hear what God may be speaking to us through his Word, often learning from the insights of those in the community. In addition, the various themed workshops have inspired our marriage and given us new ways of parenting. Lastly, having a week unplugged from our various electronic devices and work responsibilities allows us time to rest and recharge.

Catalina is a special place. We basically go every year, and there’s something about it, maybe the island, maybe because it feels safe, maybe that we’re all there as a community and we’ve become friends, maybe because nobody’s on their phone, but some of my best memories happened there. I will remember them for the rest of my life.

Like others, I consider CBS “Holy Ground” in my spiritual journey. My family and I are grateful for the opportunity to return to CBS.
