Summer Camps at Central Church
From making lasting friendships and unforgettable memories, to learning more about Jesus, camps create environments where life change happens. Central has summer experiences for kids and students in K-12th grade.
What makes camps so special?
Lasting Friendships
No matter what age you are, camps allow you to meet new friends. You’ll be amazed at the conversations and fun your kids have when they’re able to escape from phones and other screens.
Unforgettable Memories
When’s the last time you stuck a fry up your nose? Or went kayaking? Or dangled 30 ft in the air? Camps allow kids to be kids and students to have tons of crazy fun.
A Safe Place to Learn
Security and safety are our #1 priority. Every volunteer and staff member is background checked to ensure your child’s safety. More than that, we allow your children to explore their faith in an environment where they won’t be judged.

What measures are taken to ensure the safety of our children?
We take the safety of your children very seriously.
All adult volunteers are required to have a cleared background check and complete an online ministry-safe training prior to serving. Additionally, we’ll have processes for medication and other medically necessary equipment to ensure your child is taken care of.
What about my child with allergies?
Your child’s care and well-being is our number one care.
At VBS, we will not be serving any snacks during our 2 hour program, so allergies should not be an issue.
For our other camps, please fill out the medical form that is included in your registration. List your child’s known allergies so we can try our best to accomdate.
I'm not a kid, but I want to go! Can I volunteer?
There are many ways adults can help! Please check the registration page for the specific camp you’re interested in to see how you can volunteer.
