Summer Stuff

I know everyone says this, but I am amazed at how fast this school year is flying by! We have been blessed so many times in our ministry and we are so grateful for all that God has done. We are also excited for what is to come! Here are some of the cool things that are coming your way this summer...

JUNE 15-19
We're bringing camp to Wayzata Free! This summer Camp Victory and Wayzata Free will be partnering to offer our very first Camp Conquest Elementary VBS. This is a special week designed to give you all the things you love about camp and combine it with the Bible teaching, relationship building and excitement of VBS. Plus, we've extended our days (9:00am-4:00pm) to give your kids even more! Our fun loving counselors and staff will work with your children each day to help develop life skills, teach them from the Bible relevant lessons for their Christian life, and share with them a week they'll not soon forget. We believe this is a unique opportunity, one that we could not pass up!

This week is open to kids who have completed Kindergarten through 5th grade. The cost of this event is $69 per child, $200 max per family. Scholarships are available!!! Registration opens Sunday, April 5. Information will be available at the Kids Welcome Center and on our website.

July 13-17
We've decided to offer our preschool VBS as a separate program on a different week this summer. This will not only give our kids more space to move about, but a shorter day and curriculum that better fits the needs of preschoolers! Boomerang Express Preschool VBS will be offered to kids two through five years old and will run from 9:00am to 11:00am. Cost for this event is $20 per child. Registration will open Sunday, April 5 and will be available at the Kids Welcome Center.

August 10-13
We are also excited to offer a NEW kind of sports camp this year. SportsLife is an innovative sports AND arts camp that works with kids to develop their athletic and artistic passions and skills while teaching from the Bible and modeling Jesus' love. This camp is open to kids 1st through 5th grade and will run from 9:00am to Noon (Mon-Thurs). Cost for this camp is $60 per child (includes t-shirt and sports bottle) and $160 max per family. Registration will open Sunday, April 5 and will be available at the Kids Welcome Center.
