Summer Day Camp
A chance for kids to experience adventure, creativity, and friendship in a safe, welcoming environment.
About FCC Day Camp
Join us this summer for four action-packed Saturdays filled with stories, games, and projects.
Who? FCC Day Camp is for kids ages 6-12 (completed Kindergarten to completed 6th grade).
What? Storytime, crafts, and games of all sorts—with a special focus on reading and literacy. Our volunteer team includes educators and social workers who work hard to ensure that everything we do is exciting, educational, and age-appropriate.
When? Camp takes place each of the four Saturdays in June (June 6th, 13th, 20th, and 27th) from 9:00am to 12:30pm.
Where? First Christian Church, 1806 Central Ave. Hot Springs, AR 71909.
Cost? None! We offer camp free of charge. Day Camp is funded by our church, as well as a generous grant from the National Benevolent Association of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
Additional Info
Safety Information.
Your child’s safety is of utmost importance to us. Here are a few of the measures we will take to ensure the safety of all camp participants:
Only persons who have been explicitly authorized will be allowed to check out and pick up your child.
Our facility is secure, and all doors are locked from the outside. No unauthorized persons will be allowed entry.
All volunteers will undergo a background check and safety training.
FAQs.
Does my child have to attend every session? Nope! Even if they can only come one Saturday, you’re welcome to sign them up. Just indicate which Saturdays they will attend on the registration form.
Where will camp take place? All camp activities will take place in the building and grounds of First Christian Church.
What sorts of activities will campers be doing? FCC Day Camp has a special focus on character education and reading/literacy. Each day will include story time and activities associated with a particular book, as well as music, outdoor/indoor games, and art projects.
Is this a Vacation Bible School? Yes and no. While we do incorporate some faith-based elements, our focus is more educational than a typical VBS. At FCC, our faith in Jesus leads us to nurture the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
Will meals be provided? Yes! We will provide breakfast and lunch. If your child wants to bring a sack lunch, that’s fine too. Just be sure to write their name on it, and our kitchen volunteers will keep it until lunchtime.
Is transportation available? Yes! Just indicate it in the appropriate section of the registration form.
