Camp: Under RE-Invention

UPDATE May 29 – Tentative date to Open Registration June 7.   Limited space due to social distancing and smaller grant this year.
 
UPDATE May 22 – we just got our notice of grant Approval, so we are  definitely having camp this summer.
 
 
Hello!
 
With current the Covid-19 Pandemic, we have decided to completely RE-INVENT how we do camp for 2020.  We are very excited to see how God leads us as we prayerfully answer those questions.  We were particularly excited to get some clarity on May 6 with “BC’s Restart Plan” released by the Government of BC.  We will continue to follow guidelines and best practices put out by the health authorities of BC and go above and beyond where ever possible. 
 
We are meeting regularly and asking:
1) How can we maximize children’s safety?
2) How can we maximize children’s fun?
3) How can we keep camp affordable so every kid can attend?
 
We are carefully looking over every detail of camp asking the above questions, here is the general direction we moving in (subject to change)
1) minimize group size by having several ‘min-camps’ within a larger camp
2) maximize outdoor activities for Covid-safety in the sunshine (yes, plan on sunscreen)
3) minimize contact between groups or “mini-camps”
4) maximize cleaning and disinfecting of any common areas, especially ‘”high touch”
5) … anything else we can think of make sure camp is safe and fun this summer.  Your kids have been inside at home much more than usually.   We want to find a safe way to get them outside having fun!
 
We are currently planning to run 6 camps from July 13 to Aug 21. 
As soon as we are ready, we will open registration for the 2020 camp season (tentative day June 7).  We will continue to adjust our plans as needed to follow guidance from our provincial health authorities.
 
Sincerely: Walter Rogers
 Camp Director

“Camp was fun! My favourite part was the rock wall!” – Ella, 6
 
“My favourite part was making some new friends and getting to learn new games!”  – Chay, 10
 
“Camp was good! The best part was rock climbing, I got to touch the ceiling.” – Ty, 9
 
“Music camp was the best camp we had all summer 2017.  It was filled with great programing and special guests Perry Springman and his family.   It was all summed up with a fantastic performance by the campers on Friday!” – Josh, camp COO
 
“My daughter normally does not like to attend camps or activities where she does not know anyone. She was apprehensive to attend the music camp at Kid Zone last summer but ended up having a blast. The staff engaged her right away and she loved getting to know the musicians and band. She also loved being able to climb on the climbing wall. I am sending her this year for sure.” – Katie (mother of an 8 year old girl)
