Welcome…Thank you for considering

Cascade Christian Schools’

Summer Camp for your child’s

summer experience. THRIVE

2011: Summer Blast will focus on water play, physical and mental

challenges, crafts, food, worship, Jesus and FUN! Activities to

look forward to include Surf’s Up, Water Balloon Mania, Super

Sloppy Slopsticle Course, Slime Time Live, Nature Hike, Messy

Monster Volleyball, Outdoor BBQ and much, much more.

Our professional counselors and educators are dedicated to

providing a warm, nurturing, activity-packed summer experience

at three locations to serve you. Choose any format: camp only,

enrichment class only, leadership only or any combination that

meets your family’s needs. Again this year, registered campers will have the opportunity

to ADD-ON weekly swimming to their camp experience. For an

additional $65, any registered camper may add on the weekly

off-site trip for swimming. Older campers (5th and up) may

opt for the all-day trip to Wild Waves instead (see page 4 for

details.) What a blast! We look forward to partnering with you to make

summer 2011 your best camp experience ever.

1 THRIVE 2011 OverviewTHRIVE 2011 is made up of three components: Day Camp, Enrichment Classes and Leadership. Students may attend any one or a combination of the three.

Thrive Day Camp combines the fun, friendships and adventure of camp with the excitement of intellectual discovery focusing on moral and character development at all grade levels.

Camp Benefits• New, exciting themes each week• Field trips each week (Maximum of 8)• Enrichment Classes (optional)• Swimming (optional)• Snacks and lunch provided• Open 6 a.m. (6:30 @ Puyallup) to 6 p.m.• Acres on which to play• Playground trips

Enrichment Classes prevent summer learning loss. Enrichment classes can either be taken as an enhancement to THRIVE Day Camp, or on their own for students seeking summer learning opportunities, but not attending Day Camp. These classes offer students a high-quality experience with enriching and challenging coursework, and an opportunity to learn new skills. Classes are small, with a typical enrollment of ten to twelve students. Each student gets one-on-one instruction and personalized assistance. With so many classes to choose from, your child can have a “Summer Blast” as they THRIVE this Summer!

Enrichment Class Benefits• Reduce summer learning loss• Hands-on learning• Gain confidence• Sharpen skills• Try something new
