Looking for something fun, exciting, and unique to do this summer? The Sports Sampler Camp is a big hit every summer as participants will "sample" 10 different sports throughout the week. This camp is for fun, to make new friends, be active, and try out new sports! The camp will include discussions on our core values and opportunities for campers to recognize the good character in each other at the end of camp. The camp will feature: soccer, volleyball, football, basketball, track & field, swimming, bowling, tennis, golf, cheer, baseball/softball, wrestling, and more! No equipment is needed. Just grab your buddies and have fun! The camp includes pizza on the final day.

"My kids loved going to the Sports Sampler Camp. They got to experience some new sports they had never tried before and made some new friends as well. I looked forward to picking them up each day to hear about which sport they enjoyed the best and the fun memories that were made!" - Danielle Hultman
