Rising K5 - 7th Grade Camp Experience

We are thrilled to announce a new structure for camps this year for rising kindergartners through 6th graders (Bonus: rising 7th graders enrolled at St. Joseph can also attend St. Richard Camps this year!): we are partnering with St. Joseph Catholic School to offer our students an exciting summer of off-campus enrichment, outdoor activities, faith-based experiences, and fellowship with St. Joe students and staff! Read on for more details.
 
Things to Know: 
  • Our off-campus experiences for rising K5-7th graders will take place from 9am - 12pm on Mondays through Thursdays.
  • Afternoons and all day on Fridays will be spent at the St. Richard campus. 
  • Students must be dropped off at St. Richard by 8:30am to ride the bus to St. Joe (or alternate location).
  • All rising K5 through 7th grade students will be transported by bus on Mondays - Thursdays to St. Joe (or alternate location) for their camps. If parents need to pick their kids up from camp before 12:30pm, they will need to pick up from the St. Joe camp. A St. Richard staff member will accompany our students off campus each day. You can contact the ASC number (601-991-5198) if you need to reach your student while they are off campus.
  • Students bring their own lunch and will eat at the St. Richard campus in the afternoon. 
  • Rising 6th & 7th graders will have the opportunity to be Counselors-in-Training at St. Richard in the afternoons. 
  • We will let parents know in advance what students will need to bring for each camp.
  • Students who will be riding the bus and staying at St. Richard for any portion of the day must register for camp through St. Richard School. (Parents are welcome to register their students directly with St. Joe if they do not intend to utilize the St. Richard campus or bus for any part of the day.)
