There has been a small increase in the cost of
attendance. While we are very sensitive to increasing the cost of camp, a
small increase in our camp fee has become necessary to ensure we provide the
best experience for your campers. To help ease the burden we have reduced the
total due at registration for individual campers and kept registration costs as
similar as possible for families with multiple children attending.
The new fees look like this:
$175/week for individual camper, $50/week due at time of registration
$155/week for every additional camper per family, $50/week/camper due at
registration
[EX: A family registering (2) Campers for (1) Week would pay a total of $330,
with $100 due at registration and $230 due upon attendance.]
Registration fills up quickly. We
register on a per-week basis, and some weeks fill up more quickly than
others. Once you have had time to look over those dates be sure to register for
any weeks you would like to attend as they may not be available later in the
spring. Returning families will receive the application two weeks in
advance before it is made available on our website, so use the head start to
secure your spot!
Our Church Office has moved to 207 Church Street in
Byron. As a result of the fire in August 2024, we have moved
office location just down the road from our church campus. Registration and
payment can still be made in person at our new offices, but we do not have
an off-hours drop box. Please be reminded that our office hours are
9am-12pm and 1pm-4pm Monday through Thursday. Our Church Office phone number
remains the same, 478.956.5717. However, my personal recommendation would be to
send applications via email, and we will get in touch as soon as it can be
processed.
We process all applications in the order they are
received. We acknowledge that there may be some difficulty in
those first few days of registration reaching someone on the phone on a first
call. As such, it is our recommendation that you send your application via
email or drop it off in person and we will get in touch as soon as possible to
receive all necessary registration payment.
All balances from previous camp attendance must be paid
before any new registration is complete. If you have a carryover balance,
we ask that you make payment of the amount before we accept any
registration for this coming summer. All balance information was sent out as
tax statements in January, but if you are concerned about any balance, please
feel free to ask whenever you send in this year's paperwork.
Space in the C.I.T Program is limited. We offer
a Counselor-In-Training Program to those 14-15, or whenever they are entering
into the 9th Grade. However, space in that program is strictly limited.
Additional information will be included in the 2026 C.I.T Application, which
will be available alongside camper registration paperwork.
Thank you again for your patience and for your interest in
Camp Vinson Valley! It is a true privilege to share time with you and your
campers every summer, and we cannot wait for another year of ministry together!
