Ages
We accept children entering 1st-6th grades. We will accept children entering kindergarten if they have an older sibling also attending camp.
Age Groups (High Beams & Low Beams)
Our campers are divided two exciting age groups: Low Beams for children entering Kindergarten through 4th grade, and High Beams for those entering 5th and 6th grade. While both groups come together for shared moments like morning drop-off, lunch, and end-of-day activities we ensure that each age group has tailored experiences during their unique activities and field trips. Join us for a summer filled with fun, friendship, and age-appropriate adventures!
Field Trips
Join us for exciting field trips every week, along with engaging guest speakers and programs that align with our themes. We utilize our SMC bus and First Charter to ensure safe and enjoyable travels. Our field trips are thoughtfully designed to cater to low beams and high beams, offering enriching experiences for all. Come explore and learn with us!
Low Beam Activities
Low Beams will have the chance to join a new club week. Our clubs are thoughtfully tailored to our theme and meet three times a week, ensuring a dynamic and engaging environment. Before camp begins, parents can help their children select their top choices, and we strive to place each child in one of their preferred options. Additionally, Low Beams can participate in hands-on choices like STEM, art projects, and active games.
High Beam Activities
High Beams are ready to take on exciting and in-depth activities that challenge their creativity & teamwork skills. They can dive into engineering challenges, unleash their artistic talents in fun projects, and enjoy thrilling games like glow-in-the-dark activities, laser tag, and water games such as slip and slide kickball. Additionally, High Beams play a vital role in our mission garden, learning the importance of community contribution. They'll host their very own farmers market with produce picked from the garden and donate the proceeds to a local ministry.
Movie Fridays
Low Beams will join us every Friday for Movie Days! Our gym transforms into a movie theater with two large screens, popcorn, and candy available for purchase with "tickets." Earn your "tickets" through good behavior each week, and enjoy the fun from 1 PM to 3 PM. Movie titles will be announced weekly, so stay tuned for what's showing!
