COVID-19 Update: At this time, Word of Life is still planning to hold summer camp. There are some changes which you can see on their Facebook video by clicking HERE. Please also see our note about deposits by scrolling down to that section, below.

WHEN: July 19 - 24th, 2020
LEAVE: Approximately 11:30 am Sunday, July 19th
RETURN: Approximately 12:00 noon Friday, July 24th
Deposit: $75 (see below, you can begin with a $50 deposit)
​Balance due by: July 5th, 2020
As camp draws near, we will create a closed Facebook page for our group. We will use this to post LOADS and LOADS of pictures once we are up at camp, and we will also use it for any reminders or announcements of different fundraisers or due dates. Want to see what camp is all about? Click the WOL logo, above, to visit their website, or watch our "Week in Review" video from last summer, below!
Ready to sign up with our group? We have a new online sign-up form! Click on the button below to fill it out. That, along with your deposit, will secure your child's spot with our group!

When we register as a group, we are able to group the kids together in cabins (if their ages are similar). Have more questions about camp? Give us and email, and we'd love to talk to you about it!

Paying for Camp

​Camp is $335, and the deposit to secure your child's spot is $75. This portion is put towards your balance.

Early Bird Pricing: Because of COVID-19 and the uncertainty of summer events, Word of Life has extended their "early bird" price! If you pay your deposit and fill out our sign-up sheet by June 5th, camp is only $305! That's a $30 savings.


Deposits: Due to COVID-19, Word of Life has lowered the deposit to $50 to secure your child's spot. This does not change the amount of camp ($335). First Alliance already purchased a block of camp deposits to ensure our group's space. Therefore, although a $50 deposit will secure your child's spot with our group, all parents are asked to pay the $75 by the last day of May. You can do it now, as a $75 deposit, or pay $50 now and $25 more by the end of May.

Word of Life Scholarships: PLEASE try for a scholarship from Word of Life, and try early! They are generous, and consider extenuating circumstances like medical bills or other un-budgeted costs that may be affecting your ability to pay. However, last summer they ran out of funds by the time summer began. So please, download or pick up the form at church, and fax it in. We are happy to fax it for you, and we often do this for our campers. Again, we encourage you to do this early! Even for full scholarships, Word of Life requires the parent to at least pay the deposit of $75. (The only exceptions are foster children, given a full scholarship, and they also give out a limited amount of full scholarships to unsaved campers from unchurched families.)

Other Scholarships: We have found our congregation to be very generous! There are several families that usually ask us if anyone needs help paying for camp. If you tried for a Word of Life scholarship and were not approved, please let us know of your need - we will do all we can to help your child go to camp!

Working down the price: Usually, our camp parents pay very little over the deposit, once our fundraising is finished. However, due to COVID-19, we are unsure how much we will be able to fundraise to off-set the price of camp. This means it's even more important for every family to at least try to get a Word of Life scholarship. This also means your price may be considerably higher than previous years. Please pray with us that our church family will come together to help off-set the price of camp!
