Camp in a Box: Order by June 24!

Hello friends of ITC! We were blown away by the positive response we had from the online survey for “Camp in a Box.” If you completed it, we thank you for taking the time to fill out the survey and share some of your ideas on what you want to be included.

The camp team took some of your suggestions and sprinkled in some classic camp activities to create an at home ITC experience. We don’t want to spoil the surprise, but you can expect some of the great programming we do at camp like arts and crafts, science experiments, nature and gardening activities, outdoor cooking and more! The time has come to submit your order for ITC’s “Camp in a Box,” “Camp in a Box Subscription” or for our limited edition summer 2020 t-shirt!

The deadline for submitting the completed order form is June 24, 2020. Any orders received after June 24th are not guaranteed to be filled. The cost for a one box Camp in the Box is $55 (includes t-shirt in price), three box Camp in a Box Subscription is $120 (includes t-shirt in price) and the cost to order just an adult sized t-shirt is $19. All of these prices include shipping. If you are ordering a box for more than one camper, please fill out separate order forms.

After June 24th, we will place a charge your camper account and begin assembling your “Camp in a Box” for shipment. If you do not have a camper account, we will reach out to you for payment over the phone.

Please click on the link to access the “Camp in a Box” order form. If you need assistance with filling out the order form or have questions, please contact Sarah at sstreng@ikuslife.org or 616-677-5251 ext. 116

We were so disappointed to cancel our summer camp programming this year but we are so excited to share this opportunity with you! Thank you for your continued support of Indian Trails Camp!

Summer Camp Update

Dear friends of ITC,

We hope you and your loved ones are staying healthy and safe during this time. We would like to update you on decisions that were made for ITC’s summer 2020 camp season. With the safety and health of our campers, families and staff in the front of our minds, we have decided to cancel the following overnight and day camp sessions:

  • May 31-June 5 (Aloha Summer)
  • June 7-12 (Jammin’ in June)
  • June 14-19 (Game On!)
  • Extension weekend June 19-21
  • June 21-26 (Magical Land of ITC)
  • June 28-July 3 (Fantasy Worlds Collide)

A letter has been emailed to families who were registered for the above sessions. Please know that this was a very difficult but necessary decision we had to make. We love every one of our campers and hate to think we won’t be seeing them until July.

Please let us know if you have any questions. We will do our best to answer them.
