Our Commitment
For the past two decades, we have had the honor of leading Royal Family KIDS Camp and Mentoring Program for students ages 7-11, whose lives have been impacted by foster care. With so many parts of these kids' lives being in flux, we believe the Lord has given us the opportunity to be a consistent source of encouragement and Christlike love.
We are grateful for how we have been able to serve, but we always knew we wanted the opportunity to continue to be involved in the lives of our campers after they turned 12. In 2022, we expanded our ministry by launching Teen Reach Adventure Camp to serve for at-risk youth, ages 12-15. In fall 2023, we will also start TRAClife, the year-long mentorship program offered to the youth who attend TRAC.
Royal Family KIDS Camp
At Royal Family KIDS Camp we dedicate a week to love on kids whose reality is foster care. This is a week where we build memories through fun activities like fishing, swimming, singing, hiking, a huge birthday party, Bible stories, and so much more. Every aspect of this camp is designed specifically for our campers. Each camper is paired with a counselor and each counselor has no more than 2 campers. Building relationships, making memories, and having fun is what we do and it’s a week everyone remembers!
Teen Reach Adventure Camp
Teen Reach Adventure Camp (TRAC) is specifically designed to provide hope and a future to at-risk youth ages 12-15 years old through a weekend summer camp. Campers have the opportunity to experience life-change as they engage in team building exercise, develop positive friendships, and partake in fun activities that emphasize self-value, teamwork, and personal success. While boys and girls attend separate weekend camps, our staff team is composed of both female and male adult volunteers.
