Incentive Program for 2012

The Camp Mt. Hermon Board of Trustees works hard to find a balance between providing affordable Christian camps to children and continuing to keep up with the operations of camp. With this in mind, the Incentive Program has changed from years past. Please take note and be sure to include your Incentive Form with your Registration and Health Form:

Friend Incentive -- Bring a friend or friends who have never been to camp and each camper (past camper and new camper) will receive $10 off your camp fee. (Example: If a camper brings two friends to camp whom have never been, the camper and each of the two friends each receive $10 off their registration fee.)

Early Registration Incentive -- Postmark or have direct contact with your camp director at least 2 weeks before your camp starts regarding your attendance and you will receive $10 off your camp fee.

Family Incentive -- First child in the family pays full price, and each child after that receives $10 off camp fee. (Example: With 4 children in a family attending summer weeklong camps, child attending the first camp pays full fee, each sibling thereafter pays their cost of camp with a $10 discount.)

Please remember that Fee Incentives do not apply to weekend camps.

Come Along With Me will be June 1-3, 2012!

Camp Mt. Hermon is excited to announce that the Come Along With Me Weekend Camp will be offered again during the 2012 camping season and has become a new tradition! It will take place at the beginning of June again this summer. Mark your calendars now, as this is a weekend not to be missed! Director of the camp, Dalene Ward, says, 'It is a chance for children to spend quality time with an adult in their life.' Come Along With Me Weekend Camp is for children who have finished kindergarten through 2nd grade and an adult over 21 who would like to accompany them. It is a time that the child and adult can worship, learn, play and work together. For more information you can email Dalene at daleneward5555@gmail.com.

Work Camp set for Memorial Day Weekend

The Board of Trustees have set the date for a Work Weekend to prepare for the upcoming camping season. It is scheduled for Memorial Day Weekend. This weekend will be crucial to gather as much help as possible, as there are many projects necessary to prepare for the summer. Join us for a weekend of giving back to the camp we love so much! For more information, please contact one of the trustees.
