counsellors in place. We will update the blog over the next days and
hopefully can open on schedule. If not, we will post a new registration
date. If you are considering volunteering but think maybe you aren’t cut
out for it, we can assure you that it’s not hard! It’s a lot of fun, we
provide a lot of direction and support to our counsellors, we don’t ask you to
do anything that you are not comfortable with, you will be able to take breaks,
and did we mention how much fun it is? If you have any questions, please
contact anyone on the committee or send an email to </span><a href="mailto:canrefyouthcamp@gmail.com" style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">canrefyouthcamp@gmail.com</a><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">.
Once registration opens and we reach our max capacity we will start a
waitlist. Thank you to the many volunteers we already have signed
up!! </span></span></p>Trixiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14455045409390675002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2354116050297990144.post-69353287812297790672023-04-01T07:25:00.002-07:002023-04-01T07:25:16.124-07:00Early Bird Registration<p> Early Bird registration is OPEN!!

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">Mark your calendars!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>We are so excited to announce that we will be offering 2 weeks of camp
this summer!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We are planning to run 2
similar weeks and offer them both to all kids who are currently in grades 7-9 and are members of the Canadian Reformed or United Reformed churches of Alberta.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Week 1 ~ July 17-21 </span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Week 2 ~ August 14-18.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">We will need many
volunteers to make this happen, including someone to manage the kitchen for week 1, a
games coordinator for week 2, registration, counsellors, kitchen staff and clean up crews, so please consider this when
planning your summer vacation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> Our greatest need is always for counsellors. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">We will be asking for financial donations from businesses as well as food donations in order to keep our costs low and keep camp affordable. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">Since this is the first time we are able to offer 2 weeks of camp, and we will need significantly more volunteers, we aren't sure how many kids we will be able to take yet. We will need a minimum of 10 volunteer counsellors for each week to take 50 kids per week. If we get 16 counsellors each week then we can take 80 kids per week - which is our max total per week that we can accommodate. It is also really important for us to have the other volunteers in place such as kitchen staff, games coordinators, music leaders, and more. Please consider helping us. You won't regret it! It is always a lot of fun for the adults too and we never make you do anything you are uncomfortable with :)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">We are
still working out more details and the theme for this year, but we hope to share
it soon. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: medium;">This year we are welcoming 2 new members to the committee - <b>Curtis Meyer and Sharon Deboer</b>. </span></p>

We are hoping that when the time comes we will still be able to have our summer teen camp so we are going ahead with planning as usual. Please keep this matter in your prayers. Thank you!<br />
<br />
Our theme is "Forgiveness" (more details later)<br />
The cost this year is $175<br />
August 10-14, 2020<br />
<br />
Early Bird Registration will be open on April 1st as planned! We are accepting volunteers for most positions and are in great need of counsellors again. Please head over to the volunteers tab and see what you'd like to sign up for. If you volunteer you may register your own child or a relative right away.<br />
* There will be a $25 discount that you can apply to one child IF you volunteer for 1 or more full days.<br />
<br />
Regular registration opens on May 1st and will likely fill up fast so don't delay! Like last year we will be taking names on a wait list once we are full.<br />

<i>"Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand."

We are in the early stages of planning but are excited for what this year will bring! Stay tuned for further updates...<br />
<br />
This year we hope to accept 100 teens to camp! But this will only be possible if we get all our volunteers in place first. We will need 20 counsellors in order to have 10 teams of 10. If we don't get 20 counsellors we won't be able to accept 100 campers. For example: If we get 12 counsellors we can only accept 6 teams of 10 which is 60 campers. So please encourage anyone you know who would make a great counsellor to sign up! thanks!<br />
<br />
Last year we had 16 teens on our waitlist and ended up accepting all 16 plus 2 more! So if you see that you've missed the deadline but still want to go, please sign up for the waitlist! It is worth it and there is a high probability that you can still go!<br />
<br />
Early bird registration will be open on April 1st for those who have a parent or older sibling sign up as a volunteer. <br />

We are overwhelmed with the response this year. It's only May 4th and we are full! We are taking names for a waiting list for now and will contact people in the order we receive them if any spots open up.<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
When registering your child, please make sure you hit submit at the end only one time. You should receive a confirmation email right away. If you do not receive confirmation, your child is <u>not</u> registered. If you need assistance contact Trixie Leffers.<br />
<br />
We have room for 96 teens. We will close registration when we are full.<br />
<br />
We have many volunteer spots filled already but are still looking for 1 photographer and 3 more counsellors. Contact Trixie if you have any questions!<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">It's April and planning is well underway!! Camp is booked for August 13 to 17, 2018. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
Our theme for this year is "Love Your Neighbour as Yourself" and it's taken from Galations 5:14. We have some new ideas this year and we are reusing some of our favourite ideas from the past. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<u>Volunteer incentive!!</u> We have looked closely at our financial situation and have found ourselves in a position of being able to offer a discount to campers who have a parent or older sibling volunteering at camp for the week. Campers will receive a $25 discount off their registration!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<u>Registration will open on May 1</u> and will be first come, first served. The cost this year is $150 and we have room for 80 teens.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><u>What to expect at camp.</u></span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Upon arrival you will receive a T-shirt and bandana in your team colour. You are expected to wear your bandana for the whole week and it must be secured and visible at all times. You will be told when to wear your camp shirt. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline; float: none; font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">You will be assigned to a room with friends that you requested on your registration form. Each room sleeps 4 to 6 teens in bunk beds. </span></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Throughout the week you will participate in sports such as volleyball, soccer and basketball, challenges, games and devotions with your team. Your team will have 2 adult counsellors who are there to guide and support you! You will be treated to lots of good meals and snacks throughout your day :) There will be 3 presentations (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings) You will learn some Bible verses and songs, enjoy campfires, and free time. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thursday evening you will put on a talent show with your team! This is one of the highlights of the week and is sure to have you laughing! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Friday morning after breakfast we will clean up and pack up, then have a coffee social with a short program including a slide show highlighting the week's activities. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is a week that is sure to be etched in your memory for a lifetime! </div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
At the time of writing this we have 12 days left till camp starts! We are all super excited for this year's camp and look forward to seeing familiar faces and new ones too!<br />
<br />
Some important things to remember -<br />
<ul>
<li>Each camper is asked to bring along a dozen pieces of baking and hand it in at the time of registration. If you want your container back, please label it and remember to pick it up at the end of Friday's coffee social.</li>
<li>Since camp registration is from 1:00 to 2:00 please make sure you have eaten some lunch before your arrival. Summer tends to mean sleeping in and eating meals later and we have had some pretty hungry kids by dinner time on the first day because of missed lunches!</li>
<li>Friday morning coffee social begins at 11:00 am. Please respect this time and understand that coming earlier than that can make it difficult for all of us to do our jobs before the coffee social is supposed to start. We will all be busy with cleaning up our rooms and the facilities as well as setting up and preparing for parents to arrive. </li>
<li>We are excited to treat you all to a singing performance and a beautiful slide show highlighting all the activities of the week. You won't want to miss this! The program will be short and sweet though so you can be on your way by 12:00!</li>
</ul>
<div>
There will be an email sent out to parents with some more information as well as requests for food donations in the next week or so!</div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sunset Point Teen Camp is for students currently in Grade 7 to 9 who are members of the Canadian Reformed or United Reformed churches anywhere in Alberta.<br /><br /> It is 5 days of faith, fun and fellowship! Campers will learn and grow in their faith, have a tonne of fun and make new friendships while being lead and supported by a group of fantastic volunteers. You will be well-fed and exhausted ;)<br /><br /> Sunset Point is in the beautiful small town of Alberta Beach and is situated across the road from the lake. It is a Pentecostal Bible Camp that we rent for one week. If the lake is clean we can swim in it but other than that we stay on the camp ground for the entire time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We are also <b>recruiting volunteers</b> to help make this week a success so please check out the "volunteer" tab and <b>sign up!!</b></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The dates for this year's camp are </span><b><span style="font-size: large;">August 14-18</span></b><span style="font-size: large;">. Currently we are recruiting some more committee members to help with planning and hopefully some new ideas. If you are in the Edmonton / Neerlandia / Barrhead area and want to help, please contact one of the current committee members. </span><br />

<br />
Camp is quickly approaching and I wanted to share a few more details with you all. <br />
<br />
Teens should be arriving at camp <b>between 1:00 and 2:00</b> on Monday, August 8. (You should have had your lunch before you arrive at camp.) I know you are all super excited and can't wait for camp to start but if you arrive too early you will be asked to wait till 1:00 since we won't be ready for you :)<br />
<br />
Remember that Monday night's dinner will be a formal dinner so dress up! Sunday clothes is just fine.<br />
<br />
There will be <b>NO PARENT NIGHT</b> this year! We will instead be doing a Kangaroo Kourt just for the kids on Thursday.<br />
<br />
Please come to the coffee social program on Friday morning. The program will start at <b>11:00 am</b> and will be a quick wrap up of the week including singing and a slide show of all the fun times. If you are able to help with clean up we would really appreciate it! We need to have the Mess Hall cleaned up by 12:00 and campers will be dismissed at that time.<br />
<br />
Don't forget anything on the packing list!<br />
<br />
If you need to contact anyone at camp or you need to speak to your child you may contact either James or myself by cell. Our info is under the Contact Us tab. Please keep this for emergencies only though. I'm sure your teens will tell you all about their week when you take them home after :)<br />
<br />
<b>And a HUGE THANK YOU to all our volunteers!!</b><br />
