Mega Kids Camp will be held this year on July 17-20 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. each day. Mega Kids Camp is held at the National Volleyball Center at Rochester Century High School. We are a faith- based camp whose purpose is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the kids of Rochester and the surrounding communities. The camp has grown exponentially over the past years, and we expect 500 campers this summer, a new record! Campers age range is Pre. K – Grade 6. Children who attend camp can choose from One of the following tracks as their choice for the week.

  1. K. Track: will offer age-appropriate activities, sports, and arts for preschoolers in 3 gyms just for them.
  2. Adventure Track 1 &2: will include laser tag, large inflatables, soccer “boppers”, archery and more.
  3. Horse Track: will engage kids in Horse basics, grooming and a trail ride out in the county near St. Charles on the last day of camp.
  4. Soccer, Basketball and Cheerleading Tracks: will offer kids sports basics, training and game play taught by local coaches and athletes.
  5. Creative Arts Track: will provide children professional art instruction and lots of creative time.
  6. Dog Track: will provide teaching sessions from members of the Rochester MN Kennel Club.

In addition to the tracks, we hold 3 rallies every day to teach Faith and Jesus to the kids through pulse pounding energetic music, multimedia, skits, sports testimonials, and comedy featuring our lovable camp mascot Mega. A total of 12 rallies are held throughout the week.
