2026 Summer Camp Offerings
Registration opens at noon on February 27, 2026.

Registration deadline for July camps: June 15

Musical Theater Camp (July)
Pulling it Together: Singing, Acting, Dancing
Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays ONLY.
Showcase Performance: Friday, July 17 at 2:30 pm
Monday, July 6 – Friday, July 17
Together, we will grow in our understanding of the intricate workings of what makes up musical theater with focal points on acting, singing and dancing to tell a story, perform a piece and give God the glory. Even though every individual brings something different, EVERYONE will have an opportunity to use their talents to benefit the good of the group in a final showcase. As a result, participants are expected to practice at home.
Students will take a deep dive into the intricate workings of singing, acting and dancing. They will learn proper dance technique and terminology for common dance moves used in theater (turns, jumps, and choreography in unison across the floor). In acting, they will learn how to interpret a character and share with an audience.
All of the effort will culminate in a combined Showcase Performance for family and friends on the final Friday afternoon of the camp.
Section 1 is for students entering grades 4-7.
Section 2 is for students entering Grades 8-12, and is also open to students who were in the senior cohorts graduating in May 2026
Homework: 15-30 minutes of practice at home each day.

Writers Workshop “Alumni” Camp (June)
Believing Song
Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays ONLY.

This camp is exclusively for students who have experience in Writers Workshop.
Come share your gifts to inspire and equip servant leaders. We want to include your voice!
Collaborate with other experienced students to write and publish Believing Song, our 14th book in the Greenhouse Servant Leadership Series. Working through our writing process, each student will contribute one “final copy” personification poem to our book. Each page of Believing Song will feature one student's poem.
Each day of camp will conclude with a Lit Circle discussing the Gospel of John. (No Lit Circle experience required.)
Mrs. Michel will host our book signing and poetry reading (optional) in August.
Homework: Pre-writing, a reading, and a role will be assigned before the summer session and is required for the first class Monday, June 1. 60-90 minutes to prepare for each day of camp
Buy the book: Families will be able to order the Believing Song book which the students produce for about $22. These are beautiful 11X8 hardcover books, which look and feel very much like a library book. (Click to view Summer Camp 2024 Consideration Song online.)
