More About Camp

Entering grade 3, up to entering grade 6. If your child is entering grade 6 they can also choose to attend Jr High Camp.

Kids Camp is an overnight camp filled with activities throughout the day along with morning and evening chapel. Our camp is located right on the shoreline of Moose Lake which gives us the opportunity for swimming and water activities, including paddle boards and kayaks. Some of the other activities included are crafts, team sports, and a daily visit to our Moose Munch Box for a treat. Our camp is very structured full of times to encounter God through chapel, fun activities and developing lifelong friendships.

When do we arrive?

Registration is on Sunday, July 14 at 2pm. You will find the registration tables at the main tabernacle. Parents can help campers find their cabins and meet their counselors during this time.

Orientation begins in the Tabernacle for all campers at 4:30pm.

When does camp end?

Parent/Guardian ID will be required at pick up!

Camper signout begins at 4 pm on Friday, July 19. Parents will sign out their kids at the tables set up outside the main tabernacle and then join us for a short program. Campers will be officially dismissed from the Tabernacle at 5:00 pm and released directly to their parents/guardian. All campers must be checked out by 5:00 pm. Following this service, families can join us for a BBQ for $5 per person (campers are free). Please let us know when you register your child how many people will be joining so we can prepare accordingly.

Can I call my camper? Can my camper call me? What about coming to camp?

All phone calls will only be allowed using the camp phone during camper phone time from 6-7pm nightly. These calls are only allowed to the number provided on the registration form. If you want to call your camper, please note they will call your back during that time, unless it is a family emergency.

If you would like to attend a service as a visitor please contact the camp directors and please check in at the main office to receive a visitor tag. When parents call or visit the camp regularly it can result in homesickness. If your child is struggling with homesickness we will be sure to contact you or allow them to call you. We want to make camp the best experience possible for your child and you are a big part of that.

I have two kids who are going to the same camp but are different ages. Can they be in the same cabin?

Rooming requests will be considered for students who are in the same grade. Rooming requests are requests and cannot be guaranteed.

Will there be a Tuck Shop?

Yes, it will be open once per day and a daily tuck allowance is included in your registration fee.

What if my Child has special needs? In School they have an IPP or Behaviour Plan-can they attend Camp?

While we are not a special needs camp we will do our best to ensure every camper/counselor has a positive camp experience. It is important that parents share the needs of their campers directly with the kids camp directors prior to registering for camp calvin@np.church

The counselors and staff are volunteers with a variety of experience and backgrounds. If your child requires one on one assistance we may not be able to support them attending camp, if we do not have specially qualified or enough camp staff. We encourage you to have a discussion about your child’s needs in advance with our kids camp directors.

I have more questions?

If you have any further questions please reach out to the kids camp director at calvin@np.church
