TENT LIFE - SINCE 1870

Tenting is still a way of life in Ocean Grove where, at one time, there were 200 tents for every house. Today there are 114 tent structures still nestled around the Great Auditorium which is the hub of the summer program activities and where descendants of founding families continue to carry on this wonderful tradition.

Selection Criteria for Tents and Cottages

Tent leases will be offered to applicants based on stewardship of their time, talents, gifts and services to the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association, not necessarily in that order, and not necessarily in order of date of application.
