Summer Camps
SUMMER CAMP BEGINS IN
Summer Camp Protocols
Because we hold the safety of all as a major goal, we practice the highest standards we can adhere to. Our protocols for Summer Camp 2021 are part of that practice. These protocols are subject to change as we prepare to hold summer camp again in 2021. Please review them before sending your camper to camp. To print a copy of the entire list, please click here. Please direct any questions about these protocols to our Executive Director, Randy. He can be reached at the camp office (919) 552-9421 or at exec@agapekurebeach.org.
