Student Camp

No. A parent or guardian must attend a Parent Meeting in order for your student to attend camp. This helps us ensure that you have all the necessary information about camp, you know how to get in contact with our team, your students know what to bring/what not to bring and the camp rules, and protects the safety of all of our students and volunteers.

There will be three opportunities to attend - two in-person and one over zoom.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

We will attend Fuge Camp, hosted at Southeastern University in Lakeland, FL.

HIGH SCHOOL

We host camp at Lake Placid Camp and Conference Center.

First Naples will provide transportation for all students to and from camp. 

Drop Off  + Pick Up times coming soon.

If you need to drop them off late or pick them up early because of other obligations, please email students@firstnaples.org so that we can make necessary arrangements.

Lake Placid has a professional chef who provides the best camp food possible. It is healthy and tasty. If your student has specific allergies, please let our office know ASAP so the chef can make necessary accommodations. If the camp is unable to accommodate, we will work with you on finding other possibilities.

Yes.

Many students require prescription, scheduled, or emergency/rescue medications.  Student camp may expose your child to new and different foods, plants, or insects.  We want to ensure your student is well cared for while they are away from home.

Prescription Medications for your student at camp:

• Must be in the original container and labeled with student’s complete name, date of birth, date prescription filled, expiration date, directions for use, precautions (If any), storage requirements (if any), dispensing pharmacy name, the prescriber’s name, phone number, and address

• Need to be checked in with parent/legal guardian and student at check-in for camp

• Medications will not be accepted if there is re-packaging, relabeling, damage, wrong name on the label, incorrect dosing, expired, or if the student has not received the first dose more than 24 hours prior

• Only provide the amount of medication (doses/pills) needed for camp

• Standing orders signed by a FL licensed healthcare provider for OTC medications will be stocked and given as needed to your student at camp nurses’ discretion, as per the specifications included in the Camp Registration process.

All students should bring a sleeping bag or twin sheets and pillow. Students will also need to bring a bath towel and a beach towel.

Dorms are air-conditioned. Dorm layouts are varied and students will be housed by gender and grade.

NO phones or other electronic devices can be brought to camp. If you need to get a hold of your student during camp, please contact their small group leader (who you will meet at drop off). If there is an emergency, reach out to Josh Roettele (Middle School) or Aaron Watkins (High School).
