At Faith Church, our heart is that finances wouldn’t be the reason your student doesn’t attend camp. Please fill out this Scholarship Opportunities Form if you would like to request a scholarship for your student.

Who is my student meeting with in small groups?

What if my student has prescription medication?

We will have a nurse with us at camp who will keep your students’ medication and ensure they take it at the time listed in their registration. Please only bring what medication is needed during the duration of the camp. All medication must be turned in during check-in on the day of departure for camp. Upon registration, you can let us know any information about your student’s medication.

What are Tribes?

We will assign each student a specific team in which they will participate in competitive games and activities. We call these teams “tribes.” Tribes have a specific color, and we encourage students and leaders to wear their tribe’s color throughout the week. Tribes will be announced via email.

What should I do if I need to contact my student while they are at camp?

We want each student to have a distraction-free week, so they will not be allowed to bring their phones to camp. If you need to contact your student when they do not have their phones, our team can be reached at 419-778-9533.

 

How are you going to ensure my Students safety?

All of our leaders at camp will have participated in an extensive background check. Increased safety protocols with a safety team in place, coordinating nightly checks across the camp.
Separate meal times, buses, dorms, activities, and morning sessions.
