Summer Staff Reunion
2024-10-05 09:00 - 21:00 | Cedarkirk, 1920 Streetman Drive, Lithia, FL, 33594, United States
Were you on summer staff between 2000 and 2019?
Join us for a staff reunion and reconnect with old camp friends… and a few new ones, too! We are highlighting the staff years from 2000-2019, though anyone who has ever served on summer staff is welcome to join us.
As you know, summer staff are the linchpin in our summer camp programs. You are the ones who create and uphold the spirit of this place each summer and ensure that spiritual growth, adventure, and mutual respect permeate every aspect of camp. People like you have made this ministry work for 50 years. We also recognize that the relationships you formed during your time on staff and the experiences you shared here were likely formative in your life. We want to help you reconnect with Cedarkirk and with one another and build a network of Cedarkirk alumni who can continue to support one another.
We want to invite you back to camp with other counselors from your era to reminisce, relax, and continue to feed each other spiritually. We’ll do some camp activities, cook a meal out over a fire, have song time, do a little camp worship, and have plenty of time to relax and enjoy each other’s company. We hope you’ll join us for this nostalgic event at camp.
This is a family-friendly event so bring your spouse, partner, and kids along to share Cedarkirk and your camp friendships with them! There are options for an overnight stay if you have a long distance to travel – or you just want the full camp experience.
FULL DAY Event | arrive in the morning for activities and hang out time, followed by lunch, song time, and an afternoon of activities and more fellowship; we’ll have dinner together, followed by a line dance and campfire

Spring Break Day Camp
2025-03-17 - 2025-03-21 | Cedarkirk, 1920 Streetman Drive, Lithia, FL, 33594, United States
REGISTER ONLINE

ADVENTURE DAY CAMP | PARENT HANDBOOK

** Register under “Cedarkirk Events 2025”
Spring Break Day Camp runs from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday.

Who is Spring Break Day Camp for:
Current K-5th graders.
Day Camp at a Glance
Our adventure-based, faith-focused day camps will provide your camper with a week full of outdoor adventure. Day campers will play outside, make friends, try some new adventures, and grow in their faith.
How We Do Day Camp
Your camper will be part of a “family group” – a group of campers with their counselors. It is with this small group that each camper will experience all of Cedarkirk’s activities. A few times a day the family groups will join together (lunch, large group games, etc.). With this family group model your camper can expect to make new friends, try new things, and grow in their faith. This model allows our counselors to focus on each camper as group member – and as an individual. It also ensures the highest level of supervision so that every camper feels safe, included, and part of something bigger than themselves.
Adventure-Based
Much of your camper’s day will be spent outdoors participating in camp activities like the climbing wall, arts & crafts, devotion, creek stomping and shark’s tooth hunting, zip lining, swimming in our pool, and more! One of Cedarkirk’s greatest assets is our beautiful, wooded property and we use it fully for our camp programs. Even though we’re just down the road, driving onto camp property feels like you’re leaving the world far behind, which is ideal for campers to have ample time to just be kids! Of course, summer days in Florida are hot and we build in ample down time to cool off, hydrate, and get ready for the next activity.
Faith-Focused
In addition to the exciting camp activities, the core of our program is daily devotion and opportunities to explore faith. Once a day our counselors lead campers through a weekly curriculum that will help campers learn more about their faith and strengthen their relationship with God. We want every camper to know that God loves them and that this is a safe space for them to ask tough questions and figure out how to connect more with God in new ways.
Our Staff
The best part of our program is our exceptional summer staff. We go to great lengths to select and train enthusiastic, dedicated, and responsible young adults to ensure a safe, meaningful, and fun experience for your child. Each staff member is background checked to Florida Level II standards, trained in first aid, CPR, and the use of an AED, and participates in a rigorous staff training. If you have questions about how we screen or train our staff, please reach out to one of our directors (contact info below).
Lunch
** New for 2025** Cedarkirk will now be providing lunch for all day camp campers.
Day Camp groups will be having lunch in the middle of the day before resuming with their scheduled activities. Cedarkirk will also provide a snack to every camper toward the end of the camp day. (If your camper has a special diet or food allergies, please include that in their Health Form during the registration process so we can accommodate them.)
Drop Off & Pick Up
* Camper drop off each day is from 8:30 am to 9:00 am.
* Camper pick up each day is from 4:30 pm to 5:00 pm.
* We do not accommodate drop off before 8:30 am or pick up after 5:00 pm. Repeated violation of the drop off / pick up timeframe may result in removal of your camper from the program.
Drop off and pick up are pretty quick processes. We’ll ask you to sign your camper in at the beginning of each day and then you can head out (please allow a little extra time the first day for us to check approved pick-up names, verify health info, etc.). At pick up we’ll bring your camper to you as we’re checking ID and signing your camper out; then you can just listen as your camper recounts stories from the day or sings silly camp songs they’ve learned.
*Please allow a little additional time for Monday’s drop off so you can verify your list of authorized pick up persons and review the health and contact info you submitted for your camper. Do note that we require any person picking up a camper to present photo identification and be on your pre-approved list of authorized persons.

Summer Camps
2025-06-08 - 2025-08-01 | Cedarkirk, 1920 Streetman Drive, Lithia, FL, 33594, United States
