Summer Camps

Flexibility Means Choices for Parents

• Overlapping Age Groups
  • Children who have just completed 2nd grade can attend Day Camp or Children's Camp. We understand some children are not ready for overnight camp yet and would benefit the most from a day camp experience.
  • Children who have just completed the 6th grade can attend Youth Camp or Girls/Boys Camp. Parents can choose the experience that is the best fit for their child.
• Simultaneous Girls & Boys Camps

Traditionally Blaze Girls Camp and Velocity Boys Camp were conducted during separate weeks of the summer. For summer 2014, we made a strategic decision to conduct both camps simultaneously and offer two sessions of children's camps. Our goal was to make summer scheduling easier for parents and churches. Each week we conducted Blaze and Velocity separately- the only common elements being meals and worship. Simultaneous camps were successful! We received positive feedback from families, churches, and Friendship Camps staff. We are excited to continue offering simultaneous Girls and Boys Camp! Parents can choose to send all their 2nd - 6th-grade children to camp during the same week.

2019 Update: We continue to offer simultaneous Boys & Girls Camps. However, this year we will only be offering one session, June 24-27, 2019. We will accept more campers during this session than we have in the past. However, we do expect to reach capacity and have a waiting list. Early registration is highly recommended.

• Optional Day Camp Extended Session

For summer 2019, we will offer an optional extended session. Parents can choose to pick-up their day camper from 11:45 - 12:00 pm, or choose a longer day camp experience and pick-up their child from 3:45 - 4:00.
