In this year’s ARTS Camp every camper will be working on the children’s musical, Elijah, by Mark Patterson. We will be presenting this musical on the last day of camp. It is important that every camper attend all of the four days of classes and the final day of rehearsal/production. Parents, family, and friends will be invited to the show on Friday.

Every ARTS camper will be enrolled in Choir during the First Class Session.

Some of the classes that are offered during the Second and Third Class Session will contribute to the musical that the children will present on Friday. However, the vast majority of the 24 classes offered simply allow the children to explore the many ways they can use their gifts and interests to learn more about, share, and worship God. He is the author of all good gifts and we want to teach the children to use them for His glory.

Campers need to register for their 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice of classes for the Second and Third Class Sessions. Each class has a limit; therefore you may receive your 2nd or 3rd choice if your first choice is closed. We will remove classes as they fill up.
