Highland Retreat Summer Camp Scholarships


All children who would like to attend summer camp should be able to do so! And Grace is willing to help make that possible for every family. Scholarships are available for campers going to Highland Retreat.
 
Grace’s camperships will match your deposit. Simply enter the appropriate code during registration. The code can be obtained by contacting the church office. You do not need to turn in an invoice to the church office. Contact the church office with questions or if additional assistance is needed. The money to fund camp scholarships comes from the coin offering, and Highland Retreat matches 50% of Grace’s contribution, up to $50, so our funds go a long way! There is also a $50 discount for multiple siblings.
 
If you want to know more about Highland Retreat, talk to a camper who has been there, contact the church office, or go to www.highlandretreat.org.
