Summer Camp

Camp Seahawk

Dear Atlantic Shores Christian School Family, 

This year’s program is going to be great! We have many wonderful opportunities to offer our campers. The team and I are hard at work daily to make sure summer camp will be fun and engaging. We have planned many fun field trips in-house and off-campus. We have many crafts and activities planned too!

Registration Opens March 1, 2023

This year’s theme is Under Construction. Construction sites are exciting places, filled with interesting, heavy machinery and abuzz with noise and activity. When we accept Jesus into our hearts, God begins a good work in us. We become the construction site where God is building something amazing! Kids will learn that God is working in the hearts of those who follow Jesus.

We are very excited to offer an easy online registration system. Once you have read through all of the information on the page, please click the registration link and follow the step-by-step instructions to enroll your camper(s). If you have any questions feel free to email summercampadmin@shoreschristian.org and we will get back to you as soon as possible to help you through the process.

This year's registration will be based on the grade your camper will be entering in Fall 2023. For example, if your student is currently finishing 6th grade, they will be enrolled in the 7th-grade group or if your child is finishing K3 currently they will be registered for the K4 group. At the end of the registration process, you will be asked to pay your registration fee. We are only accepting payments this year by
credit card.

We hope to see you at Camp Seahawk soon!  If you have any questions about the program, please do not hesitate to contact me!
 
Blessings,
 
Kimberly Broderick
Summer Camp Director

How will you be practicing social distancing during the day?
As you can imagine with small children social distancing can be challenging. We want to assure you that every measure will be taken to ensure the health of everyone.
  • We will be encouraging small group activities and individual PlayStations -  both by rearranging rooms and with the toys and games offered to students. 
  • Lunches will take place in the classrooms, at field trip sites, or outside.
  • Outside time will be staggered to ensure that no more than two groups are in one space at the same time.
  • The same group of children and counselors will be with each other for the duration of the camp is open.
  • In the event that even for a brief time we all have to be in the same area, ie. the gym or multipurpose area, the room will be divided into sections as outlined for us by Social Services to practicing proper Social Distancing, however, we do not see this having to happen.
What is cleaning like throughout the day?
  • We have developed cleaning protocols for the staff to follow during the day that meets or exceeds both the standard state licensing requirements and recommendations for the CDC.
    • The building, and especially the area the children are in, will be sanitized at the end of every day with products approved by the CDC.

  • Staff or children with a fever (100 F or higher), cough, or shortness of breath will be excluded from childcare facilities and isolated from others. Children with household members who are known to have COVID-19 will be excluded from the childcare facility.

  • If a child or staff member develops symptoms of COVID-19 (fever of 100 or higher, cough, or shortness of breath) while at the facility, they will be immediately separated from the camp participants until they can leave the facility. 
  • Once checked in each child will immediately wash or sanitize their hands before being escorted to their designated room.
