This year, in addition to our Kids Camp B.L.A.S.T., we have decided to take our ETBC children to a summer camp off campus to see what it's like meeting and worshipping with new Christians their age. Centrikid is a Lifeway kids camp that includes, recreation, team-building, bible study, and worship. Our children will be traveling to St. Pete and staying in dorms on the Eckerd College campus June 12 - 16th (5 days!). The cost to attend camp is $375.00 per student. With this in mind.....our children are being taught to raise this money themselves by working or doing something around or for our church. You may be asked by a student if you would like to donate some money towards summer camp. Ok....Here is some important information for you to know as givers:
1. There is a fundraiser EACH MONTH (total of 10) to raise only $37.50 each month. 2. Can I give a child any dollar amount? ...YES but they have 10 fundraising opportunities so please do not feel like you need to donate large amounts or all at one time. 3. Please write PAID next to your name. Sometimes kids forget who has paid and who has not. 4. Who holds this money until time for camp? Rebecca Buttram, Children's Director, will be collecting money each month from the kids to be put into an account for each child individually. 5. What if a child does not go to camp. What happens to the money donated? This money has been designated for summer camp and can stay in this designated fund or it can go to help another child. In the event a child collected money and DID NOT SHOW UP for the event....the money will be offered for return at the givers discretion. |
