Fun In The Son: Hilton Head

​

ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE

Camp begins Sunday afternoon with registration and is over Thursday night after the final programming. Check out is Friday morning.  All groups will be housed in the Hilton Head Beach and Tennis Club. You will not know how many students will be in a room until you arrive at camp.  Please know we do try to maximize room space in order to keep trip costs low for your students.

​

HOUSING

All students and leaders will be housed together. Depending on the number of students, smaller churches may room together.

​

FOOD

*Vegetarian is the only dietary option we can accommodate at this time.

​

Your registration price includes eight meals – four lunches and four dinners. Breakfast is on your own. Each room has a full kitchen and there is a Walmart and Sam’s club very close. We strongly suggest students bring snacks for the week!  Dinner will be served at the hotel Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday evenings. On Wednesday, each youth group can spend the day (from Lunch until evening program) being together as a family, enjoying the island and eating together on your own. High school students are often hungry, they’ll be happy if they have snacks!
