The word has gotten out about our 5-star camp and each year we sell out months before camp even starts. If you want to secure your spot, please pre-register before May and you will have a guaranteed spot to register for camp. In early May, people who pre-register will get a registration link in their email. They will have a full week to register in before we post the registration link on the website. After registration opens for the general public, registration will be done on a first come, first served basis.

Clothing: appropriate for fun outside. On sunny days they will need sunscreen, hat and sun appropriate clothing. Athletic shoes are highly recommended as there will be lots of physical activity. For rain, we will move indoors. Food: all children should bring their own peanut-free lunch plus 2 snacks. We will have morning snack time, lunch time and an afternoon snack time.

Once all spots for a particular camp is full, people can ask to be added to a waiting list. When a spot opens up, they will have 48 hours to fill the vacant spot.

Registration will open at no earlier than 9:00am and will close after 9:30am. Please make sure to drop off your child during this time period. Pick up time is 3:40-4:00pm. If you need more time than this please register for extended care.

Before and after camp extended care is available for $79 per week flat rate. Extended care is available 8:00-9:00am and 4:00-5:30pm. Please pay at time of registration. Late pickup after 5:30pm is charged at $1 a minute according to our clock.

No. We are trying to keep our camps as safe and affordable as possible, so families are asked to bring their own peanut free lunches and 2 healthy snacks. Please notify us of any allergies or special dietary needs of your child.

No. All positive religious views will be respected. This camp is provided as a community service by Church in the Valley and Acts of Kindness. There will be positive character teaching from a Christian perspective including prayer, songs and Bible stories. Theological teaching beyond “there is a God who loves you and has a plan for your life” will take place at our Saturday Church service, not our day camps. There will be no unique SDA teaching at camp. A summary of our teaching for each camp will be available for parents upon request. Families desiring deeper religious instruction are welcome to contact us for Bible studies or to attend our weekly church services which happen every Saturday from 9:30am-12:30pm at www.churchinthevalley.ca We also have a special Kids Zone Church each Saturday from 10am-12:30pm with games, Bible stories and prizes.

Our carefully selected staff is sensitive to the needs of the individual camper. All full time staff are screened and oriented by our experienced leadership and certified in CPR and first Aid. Most staff are experienced in working with children. We aim to have a 4:1 child to staff ratio or better. All volunteers and staff must pass our application process including a criminal background check. Your child’s safety is our top priority
