Get Registered On Time! Registration deadline is Sunday, May 6th.
Fundraisers - Campers have an opportunity to 'earn' their way to a free week of summer camp this year! For students to choose to participate in the fundraisers, credit will be earned on a scale of participation (see camper policy below). If you are interested in participating in fundraisers, you will need to contact Annette at the church office no later than Sunday, March 11th so we can make adequate arrangements for fundraisers and adult supervision.
Our first fundraiser is in conjunction with the JCYM Bowl-A-Thon on Sunday, March 25. All interested campers need to pick up a Bowl-A-Thon packet from Pastor Todd and start getting pledges. Each camper will need to earn a minimum of $100 in pledges. Rather than receiving a bonus gift card, the equivalent funds will be deposited into the Camper Fund and a percentage of your base fees will be paid for summer camp!
2012 Camp Fees - Below listed are the base fees for the 2012 season. If a camper chooses to purchase a camp video, camp picture and/or signs up for activities that require an additional fee, those fees are the responsibility of the camper. Also, for Horsemanship Camps we will pay the highest base listed ($297) and the camper will have the responsibility of picking up the remaining cash balance.
