Mision Statement
Camp UTABA exists to provide a place for spiritual renewal through environments, experiences, and resources which draw people of all ages to God through the ministry of Christian camping.
Our First 100 Years
In 1924 this space God provided transitioned from a men’s fishing camp to a family camp that was eventually deeded to First Baptist Church of Ogden and named Camp UTABA.

Our Next 100 Years
Walt Whitman wrote, “Now I see the secret of making the best person, it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.” Since its inception, Camp UTABA has provided an amazing resource for families and organizations for decades and will soon celebrate its centennial in 2024.
UAABC is actively planning Camp UTABA improvements to take the camp into the next century. You are welcome to join in that planning either in kind or with your financial contribution. Please contact the camp staff if you wish to be part of the planning and development. We would love to have your support for this important mission!
