    All students will be presented with the Good News of Jesus Christ, but we will give no pressure for students to make decisions regarding their faith.  We simply want to share our stories and let students know how much God loves them.

    Sports and English Camp will use several different methods to help students improve their English ability.

    Students who bring a cell phone will have to Check It In during REGISTRATION. NO EXCEPTIONS.  

    There will be an opportunity every day during Free Time (3:30-5:30) when students may retrieve your phone to make calls to parents.  

    Students will be encouraged daily to call their parents.

    Students will return their cell phone before dinner each evening.

    All cell phones will be returned to students on Saturday before they leave camp.  

    Any student who doesn't follow the cell phone policy will have it confiscated until the end of camp and will be unable to attend camp the following year.

     

    An emergency phone number will be available for  parents to get a hold of students if needed.

     

     

  • Can students bring money to buy snacks?

    Yes. Seventeen delicious meals will be served over the course of the week, all served in the MCA cafeteria. 

    However, sometimes students get hungry and need an extra snack. 

    Students will be allowed to leave campus during free time only, with the supervision of a faculty member, to buy drinks or snacks. (Tea shop/ 7-11)

    (Please DON'T BRING snacks to camp. NO FOOD is allowed in the DORM ROOMS. Thank You!)

  • What if I get SICK or INJURED at camp?

    SICKNESS

    -If a student becomes ill at camp, parents will be notified and they will be monitored for 24hrs.  If a fever over ??degrees continues for more than 24 hours, parents will be notified to come pick up their child.  Because campers will be sleeping together in large rooms, we must regretfully ask sick campers to return home.  We believe this is in the best interest of all students and staff.

    INJURIES

    -We will have a camp nurse available to help students with minor injuries.  Most injuries are minor and result from daily sports activities.

    -If a more serious injury occurs, parents will be notified immediately and the student will be taken to a local hospital for examination. (All students must bring their Health Insurance Cards. No exceptions.)

    -All students at camp will be covered by a basic insurance policy which begins the day of registration and end when the students return home.

  • What Sport choices will be offered in 2020?

     

    Each year, students choose a sport they would like to focus on during our morning sports time (10:00-12:00)

     -NEW! American Yard Games  -Basketball  -Biking  -Soccer  -Volleyball  -Swimming  -Cooking/Baking

    We may still add another activity after registration.  If so, we will let you know and give students an opportunity to choose the new option.
