This camp is very popular because it is just so fun! Join us for an awesome week for 9 to 11 year-olds as we engage the unique creativity and questions of these campers and unlock new memories with them. Be sure to register early, as these camps tend to fill up quickly.
Check-in is between 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm on the first day of camp.
Pick-up is at 1:30 pm on the last day of camp.
Summer Theme: Dive-In!!!
Get ready for our summer-long theme: Dive In! Throughout the week, we'll be immersed in games, chapel talks, and costumes all centered around the Dive In theme. The dining hall will be decked out, costumes will abound, and a special soundtrack will set the tone for a lively and textured camp experience. Feel free to bring your own costume, but no worries if you don't - our creative cabin leaders will help campers come up with something using what's available. Some campers bring super awesome and elaborate costumes, and others simply wear a name tag or a t-shirt that kind of goes with the theme. Sometimes campers wear a totally different costume simply because that is what they wanted to wear. There are no points or awards, it is just for fun.
So this year, you can wear whatever you think “Dive In” means – whether you’re a sailor, a swimmer, a pirate, or a bookworm, let your creativity shine!!
What to Expect
Wake Up
Around 8:00 we wake up the campers and start off the day with some short wake-up activities or games such as pillow fights, relay races, or other fun challenges. Campers are usually still a little drowsy but they wake up just in time for breakfast.
Skills Time
During this two-hour block of the day, campers participate in many of the different activities we have at camp. Anything from tubing, climbing, drama, arts, archery, and bumper balls, just to name a few. Check out the rest!
Lunch & Tuck
After eating lunch in the dining hall, it’s time for tuck – a shop with candy, drinks, camp clothing, and other cool stuff. Campers preorder from the tuck shop at breakfast time and have the order delivered to them right after lunch for them to enjoy the afternoon.
Beach Time
We head down to the beach while the afternoon is still young and spend a few hours in the sun. At the beach, campers can go tubing, build sandcastles, play beach volleyball, frolic in the water, or just relax on the beach while having a great conversation with a friend.
Cabin Time
After the beach, there is time set aside for campers to hang out with their cabin and get a taste of the different things camp has to offer. All of the activities from skills time (tubing, climbing, arts, games, etc.) can be done as a cabin.
Supper
Once every week we have a theme meal. Keep your eyes open for when we announce our theme meals so you can put together a costume and come have a blast at supper!
Evening Event
Each night we play a big wide game with the entire camp participating. Favorites include Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Civilization, and many others.
Mug Up
Mug Up is just a code word we use for an evening snack.
Evening Session
Everyone gathers for some time to worship together. The speaker will give a talk or someone will share their testimony during this time.
Lights Out
After some wind-down time spent hanging out and getting ready for bed, everyone hits the sack for the night. If you are an adult camper with your little scamper, it’s your bedtime too! You are a camper, just like your kiddo.
