The vast majority of Summer Stuff Hangouts are absolutely free! Really, there’s only a cost involved if we’re gathering for a meal. For example, our Kickoff dinner on July 3! And it’s just to help us cover food costs. Let us know if that’s a barrier, and we’ll make sure you’re covered!

YES! Gather some friends, your roommate, or your community group, and dive into the weekly challenges and experiences together! Everyone is welcome and we get to be a church-wide family, together! 

It’s so easy! Register now to join in on the fun and to receive your weekly summer challenge! Everyone’s invited (& it’s free!)

That’s A-ok! We’ve designed it so that you can jump in every week that works for your family! If you’re away for a week or two, no problem, jump right back in when you’re back!  

Our Servant Leadership Program (SLP) is happening this summer for students in Grades 6-12. At SLP, students get the opportunity to receive leadership training and mentorship that helps them discover their gifts and leadership callings, on top of having the best summer ever! This year’s SLP program is full and applications are closed. Join us in praying for our students, and keep it on your radar for next year – applications open in January 2025!

Firstly: We’re going family-focused! We LOVE to create experiences and opportunities that allow your family to connect, make memories, and grow stronger, together! We believe that if we can partner with parents to help you write the best possible story for your family – the impact you’ll experience will be that much more meaningful!  

Secondly: There are a lot of factors that make it challenging for our team to offer Summer Stuff as a day camp experience this year.  

1) One of the big reasons we do camp in the first place is to reach families in our city who aren’t connected to our church, or to any faith community! It’s an incredible opportunity for us to engage kids and families who might never walk through our door on a Sunday morning to experience a community who loves them and can introduce them to Jesus! That said – last year, Summer Stuff sold out quickly during our early bird rates. Don’t get us wrong, we love having our Trinity families’ part of the experience and know families from other great churches love it too! However, that meant that we were limited in how many families from our community were able to attend, with 76% being families already connected to a church, and just 24% from the community. We’re dreaming up some exciting possibilities for the future that would serve both our families and create more opportunities for families from all over our city to be part of Summer Stuff! 

2) Last summer, it took 142 rockstar volunteers to run 1 week of Summer Stuff day camp. We are so thankful for each one! And a bit of an inside look… up until the week before, we weren’t sure we were going to be able to run camp. We’re finding that volunteer availability for a full-day, week-long camp experience is challenging as most people (understandably!) are working full-time. We’re finding that people have amazing hearts and want to serve families and we believe we can find new and meaningful ways to partner together to do that! 

3) The same small staff team that runs our summer Sundays for Trinity Kids also play roles in our summer student leadership program, AND are the ones who execute day camp from start to finish. We love our team, we’re believing God for big things in the year ahead. And we also want to ensure that we care for (and don’t burn out!) some amazing people so we can continue to serve our kids and families all year round.
