for rising first–sixth graders
To join our waiting list please click the button at the bottom of the page!
Camp JAM (Jesus, Arts, & More) combines the best of SAPC’s past Music & Arts Camp and Vacation Bible School to minister to the whole child, training them to apply the gifts, talents, and abilities that God has blessed each of them with, so that they may be bright lights for Christ through their thoughts, actions, work, and play.
This year, our theme is “Stomp Your Feet, Clap Your Hands!”
Our theme verse is Psalm 100:1-2
“Make a joyful noise to the LORD all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into His presence with singing!”
Our desire is for children to joyfully discover God’s goodness and greatness with truly responsive worship!
Registration opens for rising 1st – 6th graders on Wednesday, March 22. Registration will close on Sunday, April 23.
Camp JAM will take place Monday-Friday, June 18-23, from 9:00 a.m. to 12 p.m. on the church campus. A snack is included! Children may be dropped off as early as 8:45 a.m. and must be picked up no later than 12:15 p.m. ALSO, plan to join us on Friday at 12 p.m. for our Showcase! (Please note the time difference this year.)
CLASSES
Rising 1st & 2nd graders are grouped together in color groups, each of which have their own classes, including Bible. These campers do not choose their own classes.
Rising 3rd-6th Graders take a Bible class and 3 additional classes of their choosing.
When registering, please be prepared to indicate (in order of preference) your camper’s top six (6) preferred classes. (In case a camper’s most-preferred option is not available, we will place them in their second most-preferred option, etc.) Class placement will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, and will be determined by class schedules, class-size limitations, and teacher availability. Though every effort will be made, exact placement cannot be guaranteed.
