Best Week of Your Summer

The adventure of life is just getting started, filled with endless possibilities at every turn. The world has a plan, but God’s plan to bring freedom is immeasurably more than what the world can ever offer. Staying on God’s path can be hard work, but it’s so much more fulfilling, peaceful, and even fun! Summer Camp 2024 is about building a foundation for a consistent belief that he is FOR us. Between worship, House Wars, small groups, free time activities, and awesome late nights, it will be the best week of your summer!

Scholarship

Every single year, hundreds of lives are changed at Summer Camp. We never want the cost of camp to be the reason students can’t attend.

Every donation means that more students can experience one of the best things we do all year long. Not only does the scholarship fund help bridge the gap between what Seacoast invests in camp and what parents pay, to help keep camp affordable for everyone, but it also allows us to provide partial and full financial assistance to students, who, even with a payment plan, would not be able to afford their ticket.

Please contact us at summercamp@seacoast.org prior to registering your student so we can talk through your student’s specific needs.

I’m not getting any emails from camp, what do I do?

Make sure to add emails@brushfire.com to your address book to ensure you get our emails. Our emails will go to the email address you listed for the parent contact and might be different than the email you listed for your order confirmation. We will send balance due reminders starting in May and a parent email with details about camp in July. Sometimes emails go to your junk folder so please check that as well. If you are still not receiving emails, please contact us at summercamp@seacoast.org.

PHONES & RULES QUESTIONS

Are cell phones allowed at camp?

No cell phones are allowed at camp. We want Summer Camp to be a distraction-free week for students, and few things distract students as much as their phones. Over the years, we’ve found that taking students out of their regular routine opens them up to hear from Jesus in ways they haven’t before.

Before we leave for camp, we will give you a contact number for emergencies only. All of our leaders will have cell phones so your student will have access to a phone if they need to reach you.

What are the camp rules?

If we have an issue with your student breaking the rules or any other behavioral issues, you will be contacted and will need to come pick up your student. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis depending on the rules that are broken.

• Respect the people, respect the place
• No romantic displays of affection
• Be on time for all services and activities

What if I can’t afford it?

What if I can’t afford it?

The Center also features the snack shop which will be open during free time and late at night for campers to purchase good and refreshments. If your student has food allergies, please indicate this on the registration form. Rock Eagle is set up to accommodate most food allergies. And its dining hall is peanut free. If your student has extreme food allergies, please email us at summercamp@seacoast.org so we can work with you directly and the 4-H Center to make sure we can accommodate your student.

How do you handle food allergies and dietary restrictions?
