Summer Camps

Flexibility Means Choices for Parents

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

Traditionally Blaze Girls Camp and Velocity Boys Camp were conducted during separate weeks of the summer.In the summer of 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.

• Friendship Day Camp 

Beginning in 2023 we will only offer the full-day option for Day Camp. Parents have enthusiastically chosen this option almost exclusively for the last several years. Although we are not offering the half-day option, we do promise to provide lots of fun, learning, and activities while your campers are with us.
