    Amy's Treat Hut

    Amy's Treat Hut is the place to go, once a day, for all a camper's camp merch and sweet needs.

    Recommended Tab for Treats:

    • Junior - $15
    • Middle School - $20

    Camp merch can be purchased at the Treat Hut, throughout the week, with a camper's Treat Hut tab, or it can be purchased at Pick-Up.

    Amy's Treat Hut was built in honor of Amy Horton (1980-2012). Amy was, for many years, a vital part of the ministry at Sandy Cove Bible Camp. Her desire to show Christ to others, and to see them come to know Him as their Savior, was evident to all who knew her.
