Summer Camp: The Gorey Details (Jared)

So what is it that parents need, but always struggle to find? If you said, patience, understanding, or courage you would be right, but what we're going for today is details! Summer Camp is a chance for students to escape from their normal routine, experience God in a fresh way, create meaningful relationships, and make commitments that last a lifetime! But that doesn't matter if you can't figure out when summer camp is. So students if you're reading this, show it to your parents and if you're a parent here we go:

What:
Summer Camp is five days and four nights of worship, teaching, bible-study, and insane amounts of fun on the beach. It includes ten meals while at camp, lodging on the beach, transportation, a camp shirt, and session materials.

When:
July 5th - July9th

Where:
Lodging is at The Boardwalk Beach Resort in Panama City Beach, FL. The camp is put on by a company called BigStuf and you can get even more info at http://www.bigstuf.com/

Who:
Students who have just graduated from 6th-12th grades are invited to come. Friends are welcome to come as well. We have a limited number of spots for camp and it is first-come first-served basis. We start a waiting list for students after we are full. As for chaperones, we will have a student leader ratio of about 6:1.

Fundraising and the Cost of Camp:
We will be selling coupon booklets that will be available in the student center on May 10th. They will be sold for $10 and all $10 goes directly to your students camp cost. But thanks to an extremely generous anonymous gift to the student ministry, for the first 100 coupon books that are sold, we will MATCH the $10 so that a total of $20 goes directly toward your student's cost of camp. Having said that, if your student sells 10 books then camp is half-off. And if your student sells 20 books (as part of the first 100 books sold) then camp is FREE. Yeah, I said it, free. If your math is good then you figured it out, camp is $400 this year.

A $100 non-refundable deposit is due with the camp registration packet available in the student center. If you pay the deposit and your student raises all the money for camp, we will refund that deposit money to you. Your student can fundraise to earn the deposit, but just remember that it is first-come, first-served on camp spaces, so it may be wise to register first.

The final balance for camp is due on June 28th, but for those fundraising in order to get the matching funds you have to work quickly.
