Jr. High Stampede Camp

7th Grade Leadership Training Camp

Afternoon ETC Camp
 

JR HIGH STAMPEDE:  This week is going to be packed full of games, competitions, skits, swimming, and plenty more that you'll discover as the week goes on.  

To help you prepare for this week, here are a few reminders:

  1. Bring a swimsuit (girls-please wear one piece suits), towel, bug repellent, closed-toe shoes, and a dry change of clothes--just in case).

  2. Eat before you come, but bring a snack and plenty of water to sustain you through the evening.

  3. Be prompt at 6pm so we can play hard until 10pm each evening.

Every night we will kick off our evening at the Marketplace to begin our team competitions.  Each night we will have different team challenges, games, skits, swim time, and all the best activities that camp has to offer.  Around 9:00 each evening, we will conclude with a spectacular "night activity".  Yes, if you thought Capture the Flag and the Zipline were fun during the day, well...you just wait!!!!!

If you have any questions, feel free to call the camp @817-274-8441. <top>

7th GRADE LEADERSHIP TRAINING CAMP:  We have recruited some of our most experienced counselors to be a part of this special training camp, and everyone is looking forward to spending this time with you.

To help you prepare for the week, here are a few reminders.

  1. Bring a swimsuit, towel, bug repellent, flip flops, tennis shoes, and a dry change of clothes each evening.  This way you'll be prepared for any surprises we have in store for you.

  2. Wear dark clothing on Friday night as we have a special night game planned.

  3. Eat before you come, but bring a snack and plenty of water to sustain you through the evening.

We will begin each night at the Marketplace and then lead into group initiatives, teambuilding, and low element challenges.  The remainder of the evening will include training in harnessing, performing skits, processing group activities, swimming, leading and playing games, etc.  Our goal is for you to complete this week with a great sense of what it's like to be a part of the Camp Thurman staff family.

At the conclusion of this week, you will be given the opportunity to work a day at camp during the following week.  The time slots will be posted, and you may sign up for one of them.  The times are from 7:45 to 4:30 Monday thru Friday.  Sign up sheets will be made available during the camp.

And finally, just a reminder on the night camp hours:  6-10 every evening, Monday through Friday.  Also, we ask everyone to wear modest swim suits (girls, this should be a one piece).

If you have any questions, feel free to call the camp at 817-274-8441 or Hummer at 817-648-2717. <top>

Afternoon ETC CAMP:   This week is going to be packed full of new activities, team challenges, skits, swimming, games, high ropes, and excited counselors.  

To help you prepare for this week, here are a few reminders:

  1. Bring a swimsuit (girls-please wear one piece suits), towel, bug repellent, closed-toe shoes, and a dry change of clothes--just in case).

  2. Bring an evening meal in a insulated cooler or backpack for each evening except Wednesday - when we'll provide the meal.

  3. Be prompt at 3pm so we can play hard until 9pm each evening.  Remember, drop-off is at the Smith Barry gate and pick-up at the Sarah Dr. gate.

Each afternoon will begin in the newly-air conditioned Rattler's Retreat to lay out plans for the day, a bible sharing time, and some team challenge strategy.  By 3:45 we'll be out in the field with our first activity, and we won't stop until "dinner time" together back in the retreat.  After dinner and skits, we'll jump back into our Extreme Challenge schedule and play hard until time for pickup at 9pm. 

If you have any questions, feel free to call the camp @817-274-8441. <top>
