What to Expect:
Dynamic Worship and Bible Study: Students are divided into groups for recreation and Bible study based on age ranges by grade completed. Each activity serves a specific purpose and is debriefed so students can make applications in their lives.
Track Times: Students participate in Track Times, where they can participate in something with which they are familiar or try something new! They offer creative, active, performance, and classroom-based activities during these times, and a member of the FUGE Camps staff leads each track.
Theme – Into the Light: This year’s theme focuses on moving into the Light and owning one’s faith, encouraging students to step from a borrowed faith into a full, vibrant faith that is their own.
Deposit: $75 to reserve your spot
