The Return of Day Camp

With the weather beginning to warm up, Warm Beach Camp is abuzz with anticipation for this upcoming summer! After a five-year hiatus, a fresh Day Camp program is returning this June!

It is thrilling to soon have kids back here at camp in our own programming and to play a pivotal role in how they will hear the Gospel. Sara Kauffman, Day Camp Manager, said, “My heart behind Day Camp is that kids need a space when they’re little to be reminded how valuable they are to the Kingdom. The prospect of seeing a kid accept Christ for the first time at camp is nothing short of amazing!”

Day Camp will consist of six weeks this summer and be offered to children between the ages of 5 and 12. Kids will experience a week filled to the brim with exploration and adventure! Daily age-appropriate activities will range from Outdoor School lessons to recreational activities, including daily pool time, arts and crafts, and group games. Kids will also participate in daily Worship Rallies, where songs are sung, and the Word of God is shared.

Camp truly is a special time in a child’s life, and the ministry’s priority is to provide a trusted space geared toward the needs of local families. Day Camp is a fun and wholesome week carved out of everyday life where children step out of their comfort zones, build healthy relationships, and experience the best of what summer has to offer!

Warm Beach Camp is ecstatic to provide a safe environment for kids to explore their faith in fun and engaging ways! Registration for Day Camp is now open. Click here to learn more.

Sara Kauffman, Day Camp Manager, is passionate about creating an environment in which all involved in Day Camp have transformational experiences, “I want this to be a time of fun and a deepening awareness of Jesus for all involved! I hope that through each week of camp, Christ is felt by both campers and staff and that people are led closer to Christ.” For inquiries, click here.

Through My Lens

I watch through the camera as kids come running through the trees – one young boy runs with his hand outstretched to tag the girl sprinting from him. I instinctively press the button to capture the kids’ joyful expressions. My camera captures the moment seamlessly: the boy completed his mission. This summer, I had the opportunity to be the camp photographer for Day Camp and Camp SunSparrow at Warm Beach Camp and Conference Center. This was my first experience in ...
