Springhill Day Camp
Springhill Day Camp
July 10-14
8:30 a.m.-3 p.m.; camper ages: completed kinder-5th grade
What better way to spend a week than enjoying God’s good creation? Crafts, music, games, visiting the creek and the weekly cookout add up to a great week. And don’t forget the watermelon seed spitting contest! Drop off and pick up at PHPC. Campers meet at 8:30 a.m. each morning and travel in the church vans to Preston Hollow’s own Springhill property. Located just 25 minutes away at Renner and George Bush, Springhill consists of 50 wooded acres reminiscent of the Texas Hill Country yet in the city! We have a new camp Director this year, Bret Turner! Cost is $250. Please contact Ann Nielsen for Junior Counselor information.
Junior counselor ages: completed 6-12th grade - DO NOT REGISTER ONLINE. Contact Ann Nielsen: anielsen@phpc.org with your request to be a Jr. Counselor.
