We are so excited for your 3rd - 6th grader to experience Kids Camp and what we think is one of the best weeks of their life. Camp is so instrumental in the life of your child. We believe at camp they will have fun, be introduced to some new friends, and experience Jesus in a life-changing environment. We are praying for your kids that this week will be important to their ongoing spiritual development. Thank you for entrusting your child to our care. We have created a couple of documents for parents that will be helpful to you. Click the documents below.

Registration opens at 8:30am for the starting day of your camp week at the Summer Camp Office. Everyone needs to be on grounds by 10am.
Pickup is between 11:45am and 12:30pm on the last day of your camp week. Lunch is also provided at 12pm and you are welcome to join your child. You will need to have a photo id and check your child out in the Summer Camp Office.
No, unfortunately. Camp is more than simply a day trip; it is a week-long adventure that will provide you with new lifelong experiences and friends.
Yes, your child can choose their own roommate(s). This can be accomplished through your registration on our Campwise registration website in the box asking for Cabin Mate Request.
There are different housing options available at camp. Maple and Spruce Cabins do not have a bathroom in the room and campers will need to use the bath houses. Other cabins do have a bathroom in the room and can sleep between 10-12 people.
We adjust our activities for bad weather. In the instance there is severe weather, each cabin has an Emergency Procedures sheet that explains where to go for weather or other emergencies.
Menu can be found online as to what to expect for the week. If your child needs Gluten Free items, they should notify the Dining Hall Servers before getting food. *Note that the menu can change without notice.
Schedule can be found under the "schedule" tab and also in the Camp Booklet that is found online as well.
We have other activities that campers can participate in if they wish to not go to the lake to swim. We have a game room, archery, bb gun range, sports, crafts, and activities on the big field.
The only allergy that the kitchen is able to accommodate is gluten free. You have the option to pack meals for your child and send to camp with them. The kitchen staff allows us to use the walk-in coolers for students that bring their own meals. We will show the students how to access the food and where to heat items.
We are a closed campus during Kids Camp and only allow Pastors or Ministry Directors to visit camp for a service. Parents visiting is discouraged so the camper does not get homesick.
Cabin leaders are assigned rec assignments and provide supervision for every activity.
Parents may deposit money online with Campwise or they can send money with their child to be deposited on Monday morning. Campers are allowed to take out money throughout the day and record is kept like a checkbook for each camper. You can add more money to their account during the week. If you need assistance adding money you can contact the Kids Camp Admin at 715.258.6850 during the week of camp. Any unused money is returned to the camper on Friday morning to take home.
Campers are divided by girl and boy housing and rom with their church. If a camper comes by themselves without a leader, they are assigned to a cabin with other churches.
We have two Camp Nurses at Kids Camp who monitor medications. Ideally, medications should be entered in Campwise before camp. If you need to send medication to camp, it needs to be in original prescription bottles and not pill organizers. Over the counter medications are provided by camp and do not need to be sent with the camper.
We discourage phones being brought to camp.
