Kids entering grades 3-6 are invited to an unforgettable 4-day adventure at Spencer Lake Campground in beautiful Waupaca Wisconsin. This is more than just a camp- it’s an experience packed with fun, friendship, and life-changing God moments your kids will never forget.
Date: Week 3 on August 4th-7th
Grade: 3-6
Cost: $278
GHR ID Code: ISHPNC
Early Bird Deadline: July 4th (Registration will go up $30 after deadline)
In order to secure your early bird discount, registration must be paid in full before the early bird deadline. All registrations and payments are done at the campwise website linked at the bottom of the page. When registering your student, it will ask for a “GHR” Code. Make sure to enter our church code ISHPC to be connected to our church. You will also be asked to enter your current church, please select Ishpeming – NORTHIRON Church even if you currently attend a different campus. Make sure you do both of these when registering your student. This will ensure that your student will be associated with NORTHIRON GO Kids.
Ishpeming / Marquette: Drop off at the Ishpeming Campus at 5:00 AM on Tuesday August 4th. Pick up on Friday Aug. 7th at 6:00 – 7:00 PM.
L’Anse / Ontonagon: Drop off at the L’Anse Campus at 5:00 AM on Tuesday August 4th. Pick up on Friday Aug. 7th at 6:30 – 7:00 PM.
Please arrive ON TIME. We are time sensitive since the camp starts so early. If late, you will be responsible for driving your student to Spencer Lake in Waupaca, WI. We will not be stopping for breakfast. The bus will stop as needed for a bathroom break at a gas station. Students will not be allowed to buy any snacks once we stop.
Please use a sharpie and masking tape when labeling all your student’s luggage and possessions; add your student’s full name along with NORTHIRON Church. Medications should be handed over to a volunteer at the check in desk.
ALL medications MUST be in original prescription bottles. No over the counter medications may be brought to camp. The nurse will have these items for your student if in need. Students are to keep their own rescue inhalers while at camp. Your students safety is our number one concern.
LIST:
NORTHIRON Church phone / electronic policy while at kid’s camp is as follows: Your student can bring their phone and electronics for the bus ride to and from camp. Cabin Leaders will then collect their electronics once we arrive at camp. They will be returned to them for the ride home on Friday. It is possible they will not be charged before we leave, so please remember to use portable chargers if needed.
Kids Camp offers students the opportunity to disconnect from distractions by being in
a new environment, allowing them to grow in their relationship with God. We have found phones and electronics hold students back and cause more distractions and create more home sickness. One of the many benefits of Kids Camp is a phone free
time. Please help our staff and cabin leaders by preparing your student beforehand.
NORTHIRON Church offers a limited amount of partial scholarships. Please note that all scholarships are meant to assist in crisis, emergency and financial difficulties. It is a privilege to receive a scholarship—not all requests will be granted. Scholarships are intended to help cover part of the cost of registration only. (Scholarships will not cover any extra fees such as late fees, t-shirts, etc.)
Deadline for requests is before July 2nd.
Scholarship inquirers can contact Pastor Kim via email: kim.jestila@northiron.church

This week is for your students to not only have fun, but to grow in their relationship
with Jesus without any distractions.
All medications MUST BE in the original labeled pill bottle/container. Place all
medications in a large zip-lock bag with your student’s name on the outside.
No over the counter medications of any kind may be sent with your camper.
Students will be in charge of their own money. When we arrive at camp, they have the option to store their money in the camp bank. Parents also have the option to deposit spending money for their student in the camp bank when they register. We highly encourage using the camp bank and not leaving money in the cabin or laying around. Any spending money that remains at the end of the week will return with your camper.
