Children and Youth Summer Camps
Posted January 3rd, 2008 by mhaney
The 2008 Summer Camp schedule has been published. A full summer of camps with a wide variety of topics and choices is available for kids and youth in grades 1st through 12th. Mini camps, lasting 3 days, are generally for those youths who have completed 1st through 3rd grades. Beginning in the 3rd grade, there are many full week camps to choose from. A full week of camp will cost $339-$344 this summer depending on location and theme and a mini-camp is $149-$185 depending on location and theme. Some camps also charge fees for certain activities. A full schedule of all camps is available at

The United Methodist Men have generously raised money again this year and supplemented the budgeted money to allow a half scholarship for all children of church members to attend one camp. You can register your child for the camp of their choice yourself. At least a $50 deposit must accompany your registration. Then let Marj Haney know which camp you have signed up for. Around the middle of April, you will receive a check from the church made out to the Conference or to the camp for the scholarship. You are responsible for sending that on to the registrar.
If you attended a camp last year, you will probably receive a registration packet at your home. You might have already signed up for your camp last year at the end of your week. Extra brochures and information will be available for those who haven’t attended before. Please see the large poster on each Nurture board for everything related to camping.
