Unfortunately, due to lack of registration interest and capacity, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our Teen Camp in its current version :/

HOWEVER! We will be incorporating our plans for the Teens into the 2nd week we have planned for camp at the end of July. If interested, please register your camper for "Week 2" of "Kid Camp" [July 31-Aug 4] HERE-->https://forms.gle/q77k6ciDwrLBj64u7 [or link in bio] They are absolutely welcome to join us for both weeks, but our week 2 will have dedicated sessions for our older campers:)

More info to come!
We really appreciate your understanding, patience and flexibility!
Feel free to reach out any questions:)

Hey all! My name is Martha Minnick and I’m the assistant director. . Lately we’ve been having problems with kids digging for treasure on our steps. I saw three little girls playing on the steps the other day and I should’ve stopped to see what was up. It’s breaking my heart to see our steps taken apart. All those tiles were made by other little kids. Please tell your kids to be respectful. This really sucks

At the beginning of December last year we were able to start a new meal assistance program for families in need. Thank you for supporting our children.
