What are the dates for the camp?
The next LCT is from Saturday, June 27 - Friday, July 3, 2026.
What is the cost of the camp?
The cost of the camp is $900 per camper.
What should my son bring? Is there a packing list available?
Yes, here is a link to download the LCT packing list PDF. Please do not bring electronics of any kind (cell phone, iPod, iPad, video games, etc.).
Where will LCT 2026 be held?
Stoney Creek Ranch is in New Ulm, TX which is north of Columbus near Houston. For the exact location, see http://www.stoneycreekranch.org
When can I drop off my son at Stoney Creek Ranch?
Please plan on arriving and checking in at Stoney Creek between 3pm and 5pm on June 27th. Please do not arrive before 3pm as the camp staff will still in meetings and will not be available to help until that time.
When can I pick up my son?
If you simply want to pick up your son after the end of LCT, the official departure time is after the final battle at 1:30pm on July 3rd. You’ll need to park and then walk to the dining hall where you can sign-out your son. Every boy must be signed out, before they can leave. You can then drive to the circular driveway near the front gate where his luggage will be available in the luggage drop-off/pick-up shed sorted by cabin name.
My son has special dietary needs. Can these be accommodated?
Yes. You can contact the Stoney Creek staff directly @ 713.800.7250 to let them know your son’s specific needs. In addition, please list these in the section provided in the application so LCT staff will be aware as well.
My son has a medical condition that requires daily medicine / other stuff. Can this be accommodated?
Yes. If the camper can administer himself, LCT Staff just needs to be altered so they know what’s going on. If the camper needs to see a doctor on regular basis, you’ll need to provide specific instructions along with medicines, etc.
We would like to send our son but cannot afford the full price of the camp. Are scholarships available?
Yes, a small number of scholarships are available. To request a scholarship, contact the LCT Steering Committee at leadershipcamptexas@gmail.com.
My son attended LCT in the past and is interested in becoming a Ranger or Counselor. How does he apply for this?
Your son can go to the Westcott Study Center website and click on the link under High School > LCT Staff
How will I know what's going on at LCT each day?
LCT Staff will send an update email to all LCT parents using the “Parent or Primary Guardian” email address that was input in the camper registration. This email will be sent the night of every full day of LCT. The email is intended only for LCT parents and will contain a link to download daily newsletter called the “LCT Ledger” and a link to photos and videos taken that day at LCT.
