Before your session begins, you’ll receive:

• A digital Welcome Packet with everything you need to know
• Detailed info on drop-off/pick-up, what to pack, what to leave home, etc. 
• Optional add-ons like Camp Bucks or camper care packages

*Keep an eye on your inbox for camp prep emails 1–2 weeks before your session.

We use the Youthfront App to help you stay connected during the week. It’s a convenient tool that you can:

• View daily photos and updates
• Message camp staff if needed
• Access your camper’s schedule and session info
• Receive important announcements

*Only registered parents/guardians have access. It’s secure and easy to use.

We use Camp Bucks instead of cash for on-site purchases at our Snack Shop. You can preload funds during registration or add more anytime through your online camper account. At check-in, all campers will receive a wristband with a barcode associated with their name and online account. If your camper has a balance on their account at the end of the session of camp, you will have the option of either receiving a refund of the balance or donating it to Youthfront’s Camp Ministry.

As a reference on how much to put on a wristband, most campers spend between $10–$25 for the week.

We’ve been curating camp experiences for over 80 years! Heres what sets us apart:

• A Presence-Centered Approach: We create space for reflection, connection, and growth.
• A focus on whole-person formation: Body, mind, spirit, and relationship building.
• Programs designed with age and developmental needs in mind.
• A generous, well-trained staff culture, rooted in trust and hospitality.

*Spiritual formation opportunities are woven into the session in age-appropriate, welcoming ways — no pressure, just space to explore.

We’re here for parents, too. As part of our larger ministry, Youthfront offers:

• Family blogs and parenting tools on faith, development, and connection.
• As You Go: An interactive resource that shows families simple, natural ways to bring faith conversations into everyday life with their kids or grandkids. You can choose from a range of experiences from travel to the KC Zoo to gardening, all designed to help nurture faith with our children. 
• Presence-Centered Counseling (PCC): PCC is a Kansas City based psychotherapy practice that grew out of a desire to provide needed therapy and mental health services for youth, adults, couples and families. Lead Counselor, Jamie Roach (LPC) offers a full range of counseling services and is equipped to serve clients of all ages, backgrounds, genders and faiths.
