Rebuilding Hope’s annual Kids’ Construction Camp (KCC) is scheduled for August 5 – 7 from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. each day.
KCC gives second through sixth graders hands-on experiences with basic construction skills as they rotate through stations such as Hammer and Nails, Electrical and Plumbing, Block Laying and building a take-home project.
“So many people in our communities have construction skills, and they’re generous with their time and help with the camp,” says RHI coordinator Randolph Wilson.
“While campers rotate through areas of construction, we want them to be aware of how they are building their lives.”
“One of the stations in the camp is Bible study. Last year the theme of the study was ‘What Type of Reputation Are You Building?’”
At camp’s end participants are given certificates of completion.
Registration forms are available at www.rebuildinghopeinc.org.
