Each day is a different decade where campers will dress to impress to begin the day while we cover all the fun of those years. While we begin each day by showing off our cool retro clothes, campers will learn vintage dances like the Jitterbug, old games like pik up sticks, and experience treats such as wax lips, atomic fireballs, razzles, and root beer floats. We will learn vintage crafts, pe games and SO MUCH MORE!

Week 6: July 5 – 7
Incredible Me
This camp is for boys who are currently in Kindergaten-6th grades. God’s word tells us one thing, yet the world wants to mold and conform us. The conflict between the world and God’s word/ promises often conflict. This is a weeklong program that encourages, teaches, and mentors boys in our community. This camp will help us give our sons a core base- our program is based on selflessness, personal and community responsibility, morality, and character. We will spend time working on building projects, archery, crafts, and sports.
Barbie Camp
Girls just wanna have fun and what is better than with Barbie and friends? We will explore the world of Barbie with crafts, art, Glitter-RAMA, camping, and so much more. Bring your own Barbie to play with or simply enjoy all that we offer. You do not want to miss this everything- Barbie everything-girly camp!
Week 7: July 10 – 14
American Girl Doll Camp
Bring your favorite 18″ doll and a friend for the week. We will have some DIY fun as we make things for our dolls, enjoy tea parties together, and even learn some history as we explore famous American Girls.
Game On
Spend the week getting your GAME ON! Campers will get the chance to play games of all shapes and sizes. Classic sports to board games to video games come to life, it’s GAME ON!
Week 8: July 17 – 21
Pay it Forward: Serve and Kindness Camp
Jesus embodies and modeled for us that serving others is essential to being a disciple of Christ. Acts of Kindness have the potential to make the world a better and happier place. This week is all about serving with kindness. You never know how the act can have a snowball effect, encouraging everyone to do the same. This is a unique, hands-on experience where they can discover for themselves the power love can bring. This camp will inspire and challenge our youth to live life as servant leaders. Serve camp isn’t about “I” but others.
Week 9: July 24 – 28
COA Music and Art

A final presentation of all the children have learned will be on Friday, July 28 at 12:00 pm.
