Kids, Middle School, and High School Camp

Summer camps are the CAN'T-MISS event of the year!  Every year 5 states and 30+ churches come together for one week of awesomeness separated in three camps Kids Camp (3 - 5 grade), Middle School Camp (6-8 grade), High School Camp (9 - 12 grade).  Summer camp has been an experience where students are taken away from the distractions of home and place in an environment where they are encouraged to grow closer to each other and to God.  First MB Students/Kids value camps as part of the kid/student's faith journey.  Register below!
