Thanks for applying to help with Summer Camp! Each year it takes quite a few volunteers to make everything run smoothly and you will be an important part of that. Space is limited this year, so there is a chance we won't be able to take everyone. 

Please note that your spot at camp costs $200 (for food and lodging). We understand that many of you are sacrificing time away from work and family responsibilities and that this is costly for you. However, anything that you are able to pay towards your spot makes a difference in the amount of campers that can receive scholarship money to attend. 

Please read and abide by the camp guidelines and dress code before registering. 

Register with a current email address, which you check regularly, this will be our primary means of communication in the weeks leading up to camp. 

As always, please let us know if you have any additional questions about camp, registration, etc. 


Due to the state's requirements, ALL volunteers will need to complete a background check clearance form
, including those who have completed one previously.  Here is a link to the clearance form.  Once you receive your clearance, please forward it to Desiree at dmerkey@fpchurch.com.

If you have a food allergy and needs any type of food provisions, please complete this form for Camp Ao-Wa-Kiya.

Mandatory Camp Counselor Meeting - July 17 at 7pm in fellowship hall.

WE NEED KITCHEN STAFF VOLUNTEERS-
This is a great opportunity for people who may not want to be in a cabin with students, but can still be a part of the camp experience and help benefit our campers.  Kitchen staff would still be able to worship with us and enjoy the teaching and they would have housing that would be separate from the campers. There is no fee if you are a kitchen staff worker (our campers receive a discount for your service).
