Kids Camp 2025

All registrations are handled online through the online platform Brushfire. The kids pastor or main group leader should email the GA KidMin Admin Liz (elizabeth@gadistag.org) ASAP to reserve a group.

Registration opens January 6, 2025. The on-time deadline is June 9, 2025. We may be able to accept late registrations pending availability, however there will be a late fee assessed to each registration received after June 9, 2025.

We have made some changes to our cancelation policy for 2025:

New for 2025: Updated Registration Policies

To maximize availability and ensure a smooth registration process for the 2025 camp season, we have revised our registration policies as follows:

1.  Change Fee

o   A $10 fee will be charged for each requested registration change involving cancellations, removal of duplicate registrations, or transfer requests. This fee helps offset expenses incurred by GA KidMin/Georgia Youth. It will not apply to changes that only involve adding a participant to a group. This fee will be added on to your church’s invoice.

o   To avoid duplicate registrations, we highly recommend that each individual parent or leader complete their own registrations. We recommend you as the group leader advise families to gather all necessary information (such as medical insurance, emergency contact info, medications, etc.) before registering. This will ensure the form is accurate and complete and reduce the need for later corrections which may result in a charge.

 Cancellation Deposit Transfer Timeline:

o   Before "On-Time" Registration Deadline: If a camper or leader cancels before the on-time registration deadline, the paid deposit (less the $10 change fee) is fully transferable to the church's overall balance.

o   After "On-Time" Registration Deadline: Cancellations made after the registration deadline will result in the forfeiture of the $100 deposit. Any deposits made will not transfer to the church’s overall balance. Any payments in excess of the $100 deposit (if applicable) will be transferred to the church's balance. The forfeited deposit includes the $10 change fee, which will not be charged separately. If, for any reason, a deposit has not yet been paid for this participant, the $10 change fee will be applied.

o   No-Shows or Same-Day Cancellations: If a participant or leader does not show up for camp or cancels on the day of camp, they will be responsible for the full registration amount.  No refunds will be made available.

All policies are subject to the discretion of the camp director.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to ensure the best possible experience for all campers.

The cost for Kids Camp is $159 per child, Jr Leader, or Adult Leader. (Plus $3.09 registration fee). This includes all meals, lodging, services, activities and games. Students and leaders will need to bring additional money for the snack shack (cash only) and the camp store (cash, check or credit card).

Camp shirts may be pre-ordered for $15 each through the on-time registration deadline on June 9, 2025. Beginning June 10, shirts will no longer be available for pre-order; however, shirts can be purchased on site pending availability for $20 each.

Churches should adhere to a ratio of 1 leader for every 5 campers. You will be allowed at least one female and one male leader per church regardless of number of boys and girls you have. For example, your church brings 3 girls and 2 boys to camp. By ratio (1-5), this only allows for one leader; however, since you have both boys and girls, you can bring a leader for each.

In 2025 we are offering 4 camps! The dates are as follows:

- July 6-9, 2025 Speaker: Victor Oliva

Yes! Our BGMC Silent Disco was so much fun last year that we decided to bring it back! Each child who donates $20 to BGMC will receive an invitation to the silent disco. We are often asked - do leaders have to donate in order to be able to participate? While leaders will accompany their kids to the silent disco, the only way to be counted in the official participant list and guarantee that they receive a pair of the special headphones is to donate $20+ to BGMC at camp.
