Spring Flowers
Spring Clean at All Saints!
All SaintsMark your calendars May 31 from 10am - 4pm Central, we will spend the day getting camp ready for the campers and families that will attend All Saints this summer! Take this chance to give back and reconnect with friends before the start of camp! This event is FREE - but make sure to register below so we know how many people will be coming as we are providing lunch! Also, take notice of items needed and add that information into the registration so we know what groups or people will be bringing.

Items needed include: rakes, shovels, gardening gloves, flowers (marigolds, pansies, and geraniums) clippers, brooms, mulch, and potting soil.

To register your group, click here or visit the All Saints website.
Summer Camp Registration Open
2014 Summer Camp Logo

Join us for adventure, fun, and Christian community at All Saints Camp as we live out this year's theme, World Cup. Together we will explore what it means to be on God's team, what kind of setbacks God's followers have endured, and how faithful people have been able to overcome the obstacles they've faced.

 

In addition, we will live in community in a beautiful outdoor setting with new friends and old, and partake in activities such as: music, art, swimming, canoeing, outdoor education, sports and games.

 

Camp is also a great place for personal development. Campers are able to try new things and to be challenged by new opportunities. Our camp programming helps young people deepen their relationship with Jesus and strengthen their voice as leaders in the community.

 

To register, visit the Summer Camp webpage. Register soon as spots are going fast!

Need a Financial Hardship Scholarship for Camp?
The Diocese of Kentucky is committed to ensuring every young person in the diocese the opportunity to attend camp regardless of financial resources. If you have indicated in your camper's registration that you have a financial hardship or that you are able to pay the deposit only, we will be contacting you with  more information. Our hope is that the family can contribute 1/3, the congregation can contribute 1/3, and the diocese can contribute 1/3. Other arrangements will be considered if you are not able to meet that formula.
Payments not Accepted at Check-in This Year
We will not be accepting money at camp during check-in. If you have an outstanding balance, all payments should be sent directly to the Diocesan Office c/o Vicky Kaeser at 425 S. 2nd St., Ste. 200, Louisville, KY 40202.

Keep Up with Your Camper's Adventures Online
Keep in mind that we have a Facebook page (DioKY Youth) that will be updated daily during summer camp. Be sure to watch for pictures of your child and to see just what we do at camp so you and your child can relive his/her experiences once they have returned home from camp. This is a great way to get your child to open up about their adventures!
