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.

While we encourage participants and leaders to register and submit their deposits ASAP, the deadline to receive on time pricing is Monday June 9. We must have received the $100 deposit AND a completed registration form by this date to qualify for on time pricing. Applicable late fees will be added on to any camper who does not complete their registration in its entirety by June 9.

*Registrations submitted between June 10-June 30 (subject to availability) will be assessed a $20 late fee ($179 pp total). Registrations submitted July 1-the start of camp (must contact GA KidMin directly to confirm availability and receive verbal or written acceptance) will be assessed a $50 late fee ($209/pp total)

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.

2. 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 discretion of 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

July 9-12, 2025 Speaker: Victor Oliva

July 13-16, 2025 Speaker: Steven Hicks

July 16-19, 2025 Speaker: Steven Hicks

Kids Camp is for all boys and girls age 7-12. No students ages 13-15 will be allowed to attend Kids Camps as campers or as Junior Leaders. Students age 16-17 may come as Junior Leaders, but they may not come as the main leader for your group.

Team colors will be announced Thursday, June 26, 2025 for all 4 camps.

A thorough packing list will be included with the camp packet, but plan for casual clothes (nothing fancy is necessary), comfortable sneakers, and flip flops/crocs for water activities. Campers and leaders will need all toiletries, twin size linens and towels. Spending money (approximately $20-$40) is recommended for snack shack and camp store.

Yes! We will host a Zoom call (mandatory for all leaders) on Thursday, June 26, 2025 at 7:00 pm. During this Zoom, you will learn what is expected from you as a leader and important details to make Kids Camp successful and effective.

While the cost of camp includes all meals, services, and activities, we recommend sending your camper with some spending money if possible. There will be a snack shack and a camp store. We recommend roughly $20-$40 per child. Snack Shack accepts cash only. Camp store accepts cash, check, or credit card (minimum of $10 per credit card transaction).

A detailed schedule will be made available in the Camp Info Packet. Generally speaking, the days will consist of team games, free time, and services.

At camp we will serve dinner on day 1, breakfast/lunch/dinner on days 2 and 3, and a breakfast to go on day 4. A detailed menu (subject to change) will be made available prior to camp.

We offer a variety of foods at each meal, however our kitchen is unable to accommodate special diets and/or food allergies. We will provide a menu as soon as it is available so parents can plan accordingly. We offer refrigerators and microwaves in each dorm that are reserved for children/leaders who need to bring their own foods due to allergies. Camp fees will remain the same even if campers or leaders bring their own food due to dietary restrictions or food allergies.

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.
