What Camp Crucis does

Camp Crucis is a year-round Christian retreat and conference center operated as a ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Fort Worth, headquartered on a 163-acre site at 2875 Camp Crucis Ct, Granbury, Texas. The facility comprises 30 buildings (19 cabins, 3 lodges, 3 cottages, conference/meeting rooms, chapels, an equestrian learning center, Junior Olympic-size swimming pool, sports fields, and outdoor activity areas) and is licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services as a youth camp under a documented Emergency Action Plan. The name "Crucis" is Latin for "cross," reflecting the Anglican, sacramental identity of the property.

The business operates two core service lines. First, a multi-week residential summer camp program for youth from grades 1 through 12, delivered across roughly eight grade-banded sessions per summer (Sr. High, Jr. High, Intermediates, Jr. Confetti, Sr. Confetti, and a Family Camp), with faith-based programming, sports, arts, swimming, nature experiences, and Christian worship; camper enrollment is handled through the Active Network platform (campscui.active.com). Second, year-round retreat hosting for church, corporate, youth, and community groups, with customized proposals negotiated via email ([email protected]).

Revenue is generated through three streams: one-time summer camp tuition, one-time retreat facility rental fees, and recurring donations/scholarships solicited through the Anglican Diocese of Fort Worth donation portal (engage.suran.com). The organization is structured as a nonprofit religious entity with no public listing, no venture or private equity shareholders, and no disclosed financials. Pricing is not published; prospective campers and retreat organizers must contact the organization directly. Marketing is driven primarily through the diocesan network, the camp website, preview days, and annual fundraising events (Bishop Reed Clay Shoot Challenge, Bishop Iker Golf Challenge).
