The Salvation Army Traverse City is Gearing up for Summer Day Camp!
Registration is FULL! Please call to be put on the waitlist. 

With summer quickly approaching the Traverse City, Salvation Army is gearing up for Summer Day Camp. Summer Day Camp provides area children and youth the opportunity to explore nature, enjoy fun activities, explore new horizons and meet new friends while developing self-esteem, good citizenry, and Christian character.

At The Salvation Army we believe that regardless of circumstance, every child should have the opportunity to shine brightly, laugh loudly and make lifetime memories. Summer Day Camp is one more way that we connect with area families that may be struggling or even just looking for a fun and enjoyable summer. It is an extension of our weekly youth and family night, Archery, SA Gaming Program and  Sunday School programs. 

The Traverse City, Salvation Army Summer Day Camp is welcoming children who have completed kindergarten through entering 6th grade (max 11 years of age).  Children participate in gym, games, arts & crafts, science/discovery time, outdoor playtime, Christian education lessons, and a wide variety of adventurous field trips.
