Occohannock
on the Bay Camp and Retreat Center
Occhannock
on the Bay is owned by the Eastern
Shore District of the United Methodist Church.
Once known as Camp Occhannock,
it is now known as Occhannock on the Bay.
The 50-acre tract of land is on the north shore of Occohannock
Creek. A canoe trip reveals to the naturist the vibrancy of the
marsh. The property includes woods, marsh, shallow tidal wetlands
and deep water.
There
are 10 cabins, a dining hall that can seat 200, Outdoor Chapel,
boat facilities, beach, a ballfield and picnic pavilion. Crabbing
and fishing
can be enjoyed off the camp's dock.
OOTB
offers year-round outdoor ministry opportunities
and summer
camp sessions for age groups 5-6, 7-9, 9-12, 12-15 and 14-16.
