Camp in the City is coming to FCC!
What is it?
Camp in the City is our summer 2019 programming for Kids who are in Kindergarten through 5th grade during the 2018-2019 school year. (I.e., “rising” 1st through 6th graders.) At Camp in the City your kids will get the chance to learn who Jesus is while having fun and making memories they will carry on into the rest of their lives! The program is run by Pine Cove Camps, an amazing camping ministry that runs family, day, and overnight camps across the nation. Pine Cove trains and sends 35 passionate college students and older adults to run the entire camp all week long, executing all activities, teaching kids about Jesus, and making sure they have an amazing week! All staff are are background checked, trained, and passionate to teach and lead your kids into a deeper relationship with Jesus.
When is it?
Camp in the City is July 15-19 from 9a to 4p.
