About
Early Bird Camp is a special camp experience created with our youngest campers in mind. For children entering 1st–3rd grade, we want camp to feel like a safe and welcoming place where they can try new things, make new friends, and grow in confidence at their own pace. Our staff are there to encourage them, help them feel comfortable, and make sure they feel cared for throughout their time at camp.
Most importantly, each day gives campers the opportunity to hear about Jesus and learn what it means to know and follow Him. We hope their time at Early Bird Camp is filled with good memories, new friendships, and a deeper understanding of God’s love for them.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long are my kids at camp?
Early Bird Campers arrive on Monday between 4:00pm - 6:00pm.
​
Pick up time is on Thursday from 9:00am - 10:00pm. We welcome you to join us for our closing chapel at 9:00am.
Can I visit my camper during the week?
We advise parents/guardians and family members not to visit during the week, since it will take them away from their activities. We do encourage all to come on pick-up day for the end of camp chapel.
What does a typical day at camp look like?
Each of our programs start the day with Morning Devotionals, Breakfast, and Morning Fun. Then Morning Activities, Lunch, Afternoon Activities, and Games. Dinner is served and Chapel is right after. Night time activities vary each day, but there is never a dull moment and you'll have a blast each day!

What sort of medical help is available?
We have a camp Nurse on staff each week. They live at camp and are always available to care for campers' needs. We also require all paid summer and full-time staff to be certified in CPR and First-Aid.
How are food allergies handled?
At CBC, we take food allergies very seriously. Our chef and kitchen staff will try to accommodate and coordinate alternative meal options as much as possible. If you have a dietary need, please fill out the dietary section online when registering for camp.
What do I do if my camper has medication?
We ask all prescription and over-the-counter medications (in the original prescription bottle) to be put in a gallon Ziplock bag labeled with camper's name upon arrival. Parents or guardians check in with our nurse to go over any special instructions and needs for your camper.
What to Bring
What should my camper pack?
Some things your camper would need would be bedding (twin sheets, blankets, pillows, or sleeping bag), towel (shower and swimming), toiletries, modest clothing, sunscreen & Bible. Once you register your camper, you will receive an email confirmation with a detailed list of what to bring and not to bring.
How much money should campers bring?
This will depend on how much your camper would like to spend. Our store is stocked with great gift, candy, ice cream, and pop. Prices range from $1.00 - $40.00.
