CAMP! VBS

So, what is 'CAMP!' ?
It's a terrific curriculum that includes all the traditional elements of a high quality, modern VBS but includes the flexibility you want to adapt the programming to your specific needs. It has original upbeat music, crazy games, goofy snacks, clever crafts, hilarious group assemblies, and unforgettable lesson times.

With options! Most notably, CAMP! was written to include puppeteers and drama teams! Any given church has gifted or even just interested performers looking for an outlet into ministry. This curriculum features a large bear puppet, Kodiak T. Bear, as well as a cast of zany actors (with options to use even more)!

FEATURES:
Highly customizable: Use this curriculum with a few volunteers, many volunteers, or go all out by using your church puppet and drama teams and all the volunteers you can find!

Simple or Elaborate: Play it simple! It has clear instruction for making a memorable, easy to run VBS week. Go ALL OUT! Get a drama team and puppeteers involved. Put costumed, zany volunteers to work in every station of the VBS!

Modular: If you don’t like the game, or craft, or lesson…choose another! It has choices galore and helpful notes for Biblical application to all your choices.

Low Preparation: VBS is a lot of work. This curriculum has the volunteer in mind with clear instruction and minimal prep time.

Plug in More Volunteers: (if desired) It allows a small church with few volunteers to put on a high-quality basic VBS, but it is modular so a large pool of volunteers can use the extra options to put on a large scale “big production style” VBS. Better yet, you can easily invite your youth or adult drama and puppet teams to help you stage a VBS that is unlike any other!

Don’t want to use it for VBS? We don’t mind! It is written as a seamless VBS curriculum, but with dozens of lessons, songs, puppet scripts, drama scripts, games, crafts, funny snacks and ideas for object lessons you can use this material for whatever you want!

Children’s camp, Sunday school, 5 day clubs, or any other number of events could benefit from the different elements in this package.

With the (optional) strong focus on drama and puppets, you have a lot material at your disposal.

Camp Moosefeather Falls is where it all happens. Let's take a look at what your campers will experience:

Each day your campers will start off in the "Camp Moosefeather Falls Meeting Hall" for the general assembly of cabins. (Each camper will be assigned a cabin that they stay with all week long.) There they will sing original camp songs, get the day's instruction, and more than likely enjoy a laugh out loud funny meeting between the camp mascot, Kodiak T. Bear and the Camp Director. The theme of the day will be introduced as well.

Next, the cabins will dismiss to the different stations.

Modular Stations include:
Arts and Crafts Lodge - Where campers will make memorable crafts and learn a valuable application to the day's theme.
Recreation Field - Campers play games and enjoy a more physical demonstration of the day's Biblical theme.
Storytime Clearing - Campers watch a high-spirited storyteller bring the day's lesson to life with crazy antics.  Use our video storyteller or bring in a live one! 
Dining Hall - Campers make and eat tasty snacks packed with nutrition for the soul! (in the form of poignant application)
Nature Walk - Campers hike to a location where they see a visual demonstration of God's Biblical truth!

Together again, the Camper's favorite time...

The Council Fire!
Back at the Meeting Hall all the cabins come together to watch the Muskrat Cabin Players do a camp skit, sing songs with the PPoison Ivy Itch and Scratch Dancers, listen to the Groundskeeper share a short lesson about the day's theme at the Council Fire, and laugh with glee again at the interaction between the Camp Director and that lovable Kody! This will wrap up the day, only to do it again tomorrow!

The kids who attend this VBS will learn a ton, and have a total blast. The students and adults who help out…will LOVE playing the parts and interacting with the characters that are written into the curriculum. Best of all, it is highly customizable.

Theme: It's a camp! This curriculum is set in a wilderness camp that is host to a variety of entertaining characters. At 'Camp Moosefeather Falls' a friendly bear named Kody is often found rummaging through the trash. Campers will join Kody in his effort to learn about the joyous nature of our God.

Your kids will squeal with delight as Kody, the Camp Director, the Poison Ivy Itch and Scratch Dancers, the Muskrat Cabin Players, and a host of Camp Counselors and Camp Staff make every effort to teach them about the nature of God.

Special attention has been paid to make the whole week as side-splittingly fun as possible. Surprises have been written into the curriculum to keep your kids on their toes. Jokes, gags, and all kinds of funny business are an integral part of making this VBS both memorable and educational for everyone involved!
