INTRODUCTION

Wilmington Christian Academy Summer Day Camp is a ministry of Grace Baptist Church, located at 1401 North College Road, east of the I-40/Gordon Road interchange. We provide a recreational day camp filled with enjoyable activities and learning experiences.  It is staffed by experienced professionals who have dedicated themselves to working with children and providing a program filled with exciting activities in a fun, safe environment.  Trained personnel will provide emergency care if needed.

PHILOSOPHY

WCA Summer Day Camp provides a recreational program for children of parents who need summer child care.  The camp's mission is to provide each child with a loving atmosphere designed to help the child develop physically, socially and spiritually, and to increase the child's interests in recreational activities.

DISCIPLINE
   
With any grouping of children, control must be maintained for safety and program continuity.  Appropriate measures will be taken to ensure control and safety in the camp.  Parental support is essential to achieve these goals.

FACILITIES

Our camp has excellent equipment and facilities for a variety of recreational activities.  These are used in a positive manner to encourage children to actively participate in a well-rounded program.  Our facilities include athletic fields, a well-equipped gymnasium, and inviting playgrounds.

ACTIVITIES

WCA Day Camp activities that make our program unique.  In order to form an appreciation of new experiences, all children are encouraged to participate in a wide range of activities.  These include field  trips to area businesses and sites of interest,  bowling, aerobic exercises, water activities, indoor/outdoor games, library time, sports skills, skating, and visits to the water park. A calendar of event is sent home monthly. The camping experience will also include unit studies in health, safety, and Christian living.

PERSONAL ITEMS

Children are encouraged to bring their own "special toys" for personal play time if they so desire. Personal items must be labeled with the child's name, and the director should be made aware of the item. 

SNACKS/LUNCH

Snacks and lunch are to be provided by the parents.  A limited variety of snacks and beverages will be available.
