❊ FAQs

You’ve got questions,
we’ve got answers

  • Each day kicks off with our high-energy Wake Up! Jam Session—a time filled with music, laughter, and a powerful Bible story that sets the tone for the day. Campers then gather in small groups to dive deeper into what they’ve learned, connecting faith to real life through conversation and hands-on activities. From there, it’s all about big games, creative challenges, and plenty of active fun! We build in time for snacks, and lunch, keeping the perfect balance between structure, play, and spiritual growth.

  • Pack smart for a fun-filled day! Campers should bring a backpack stocked with a water bottle, sunscreen, athletic shoes, and weather-ready clothes. If your child takes medication, please include it so they’re ready for every adventure ahead!

  • Medical forms can be submitted via our online registration portal or emailed directly to [camp email address]. All forms must be submitted before the first day of camp.

  • A licensed EMT, Nurse, or Nurse Practioner is on-site at each location. Our staff is certified in CPR and first aid, and we maintain a low camper-to-leader ratio for close supervision. We also follow safety protocols for heat, hydration, and equipment use. Allergies and medical needs are documented and closely monitored. Each location also provides security on-site.

  • Your child’s safety and comfort always come first. In the event of rain or extreme heat, Camp KidJam has indoor facilities, alternate activities, and detailed inclement weather protocols in place to ensure every camper stays safe and still has an amazing day.

  • Lunch isn’t provided, so please send your camper with a nut-free lunch and a healthy snack each day to keep them energized for all the games, activities, and adventures ahead.

  • Yes! Our on-site CKJ store is packed with all your camper’s favorite swag—think t-shirts, water bottles, beach balls, and so much more! We suggest sending your camper with up to $30 so they can pick out the treasures they love most.
