We are looking forward to a great summer and appreciate your participation in the success of Gilmont Summer Camp! The following information is to help your family prepare for the best camp experience possible.
Please view the document below to assess if your camper is ready for Overnight Camp and to learn how to best prepare them for a week long experience in the pineywoods of Northeast Texas.
There are many social, emotional, spiritual, and physical benefits to attending Summer Camp! Look at the document below and talk to your camper about your hopes for their week at camp to help set positive expectations.
If you are interested in helping us prepare for Summer Camp, please consider donating items from our Amazon Wishlist. This wishlist contains recreation, craft, first-aid, Bible Study, sensory, and more supplies needed for a successful summer.
If your camper(s) LOVED their summer camp experience as much as we hope they do, please consider giving back to our Summer Staff who pour love, care, and attentiveness into our campers. Your donations will sponsor snowcones, snacks, and other treats for our Summer Staff. If you are interested in showing our counselors love, please email Gilmont’s Program Director at crosby@gilmont.org. They would also love Thank You notes telling of the impact Summer Camp had on your camper. Contact Crosby for details.
The Welcome Packets include key drop-off and pick-up details, a packing list, camper mail instructions, and more. It is important for you to review this information with your camper(s) so everyone can be prepared for a fun, safe, and healthy time at summer camp.
Please fill out the following forms and bring them with you at drop-off. These forms are NOT needed for Family Camp.
Overnight Camp and Great Gluten Escape will have a daily 30-minute Home Check-in period to communicate with loved ones at home. Cell phone policy does not apply to Day Camp.
Take your next step to get involved at Gilmont! We are excited to have you and look forward to having you experience the community and reconnection with nature here.
