CYSC Registration

Important Registration Information

• We encourage you to register for Session 5 (July 9 - 14) so Nativity can attend together. This session is for campers entering 6 - 8 grade, and high schoolers entering 9 - 12 grades can serve on the prayer or discipleship team. 
• If this week doesn't work well for your family, there are a lot of additional dates to choose from here. 
• If your teen is in high school and does not want to serve on a prayer or discipleship team during this middle school session 5, no worries. There is a dedicated high school session (Session 4, July 2 - 7) your teen can attend alternatively. 
• Depending on how many students register from the Nativity/Bloomington area, we may or may not take a bus.
