Located in Lookout Mountain, Georgia, Covenant College sits on the mountains of prestigious training grounds. From Covenant's campus, there are miles of accessible trails including where Covenant College hosts the Mountaintop Invitational. Additionally, there are gorgeous single track trails with spectacular mountain views that run all the way to the state of Alabama. Not only is the mountain a place where spectacular runners develop their talent, but the Covenant College XC team has brought back 20 Conference Championships over the years, not including the individual conference champions along the way. 

First year Head XC/Track Coach Eli Kaczinski aspires for the Covenant Summer XC Camp to bring glory to Jesus Christ by teaching, instructing, growing, and developing young athletes both spiritually and physically. Coach Kaczinski loves to run and work with those who have a similar joy. Come as an individual, or bring your entire team. This camp will be fun and educational all the while building community, lifelong friendships, and team chemistry as you and/or your teammates prepare for the upcoming season.
