What ages is Summer Camp for? These high-energy activities are geared for children ages 4 through (just finishing) 5th grade.


What guidelines do you have in place for COVID safety?

  • Dress for the weather (and wear sunscreen)! Summer Camp will be held mostly outdoors this year. (Preschool camp will be held inside.)
  • Please bring a face mask. They are not required for any age group while outside BUT are required for campers and volunteers ages 4-18 while in the building. (Adult volunteers ages 18 and up – If you are fully vaccinated, masks are not required but feel free to wear one if you feel more comfortable doing so. If you are not fully vaccinated, masks are strongly recommended in the building to protect yourself and others.)
  • Drinking fountains are closed. Please send your child with a water bottle. Refill stations are available.
  • If you or your child(ren) are feeling sick, please refrain from attending.


How do we get the free music gift? Choose "digital download" or "music CD" when you register your child(ren). (If you register after Tuesday, June 1, all music gifts will be digital download.) Both CDs and downloads will be available to you beginning on Sunday, June 13. Your kids will be able to listen these fun songs over and over again, and will be ready to sing along when camp starts!


Are snacks permitted? We will provide an outdoor, peanut-free mid-morning snack each day.
