Cancelled

We are so sorry to announce that due to the COVID19 pandemic and the recommendations made by Dr. Hinshaw that we are cancelling Teen Camp for this summer.  Thank you all for your prayers and support.  We hope to see you in the summer of 2021!

Plans!

As you are well aware, many events have been cancelled already.  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!

Our theme is "Forgiveness" (more details later)
The cost this year is $175
August 10-14, 2020

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.
* There will be a $25 discount that you can apply to one child IF you volunteer for 1 or more full days.

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.

"Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand." Proverbs 19:21

Dates!!

Camp is booked for August 10 to 14, 2020.  We are in the early stages of planning but are excited for what this year will bring!  Stay tuned for further updates...

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!

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!

Early bird registration will be open on April 1st for those who have a parent or older sibling sign up as a volunteer.

Camp is full!  

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.

Thank you so much!

Registration opens on May 1st!

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 not registered.  If you need assistance contact Trixie Leffers.

We have room for 96 teens.  We will close registration when we are full.

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!

thank you!!

Some Details!!!

It's March and planning is well underway!!  Camp is booked for August 12 to 16, 2019. Our theme for this year is "Ready for Battle" and it's taken from Ephesians 6:10-17.  

Volunteer incentive!!  Volunteers will be able to register starting on April 1 and will be able to register their own children early to ensure a spot for them!  You will also be given a $25 discount for them!

Regular registration will open on May 1 and will be first come, first served.  The cost this year is $150 and we have room for 96 teens. (last year we had to turn a few kids away so don't delay!)

New this year:  We will have online registration and etransfer available.  Look at you, saving paper and time!! :) 

What to expect at camp

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. 

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.  

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.  

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!  

Friday morning after breakfast we will clean up and pack up, then have a parent coffee social with a short program including a slide show highlighting the week's activities.  

This is a week that is sure to be etched in your memory for a lifetime!  

Planning has begun!

We are well into the planning stages and are excited to run another week of camp this summer!  The date is set for August 12-16.  We will be looking for lots of volunteers and exploring some new ideas!  Stay tuned for more details!!
