Summer Camp 2027

Life with Jesus Is an Adventure

Dickson Valley Camp is a Christ-centered summer day camp where kids explore God's creation, make friends, and come home tired, happy, and full of stories! We have Day Camp for ages 6 to 15 and a half-day Pre-K & K Camp for our littlest campers.

A note for our overnight families: We're still working out our overnight camp plans for summer 2027. We'll share details here as soon as they're ready!

About Day Camp

What to Expect

Our Staff

  • 55+ Hours of Training
  • Red Cross CPR, AED & First Aid
  • MinistrySafe Certified

Our counselors love kids, love Jesus, and are a lot of fun to be around. Before summer starts, every staff member completes over 55 hours of training in supervision, safety, and spiritual leadership.

All of our staff are Red Cross certified in CPR, AED, and First Aid, and all are MinistrySafe certified in child protection. We believe the people make the difference at camp, so we put real care into who we hire and how we train them.

Activities

Camp days are full! Campers play sports and games, swim, make crafts, take on team challenges, and explore outside. Some longtime favorites are flying down Blizzard Slopes (our tubing hill), gaga ball, archery, and laser tag.

Jr. High campers also get the rope bridge and tubing on the Fox River, weather permitting.

Every day includes Bible and worship time, where campers learn about God and grow in faith together.

Lunch

We've got lunch covered! Campers get a meal made here at camp each day, plus an afternoon snack.

We do our best to accommodate food allergies and dietary needs. Just let us know what your camper needs when you register.

Camp Store

The Camp Store is a favorite stop! Campers can grab a snack or cold drink each day, like popsicles and chips, usually $1 to $5. We also carry Dickson Valley logo items such as stuffie keychains, stickers, pins, and sweatshirts, from $1 to $35.

You can add store money for your camper, and we'll share how closer to camp. Any money left at the end of the week can be donated to our ministry or refunded.
