Donate
At FSCE/FDCE we try to be low key on the subject of donations. It is our belief and experience that just as the Lord sends those dads and sons/daughters He knows will benefit from coming, He will likewise motivate those touched by the ministry to provide for its support.
For those attending who desire to give toward the cost of the camp, it is estimated that actual costs are:
$70 to $80 per person for the food/program and
$90 for each campsite for the full camp

Being a Deeper Part of FSCE/FDCE:
This is our 13th year and we are blessed... over 90% of our staff, volunteers and leaders have come from our campers. It is a God-led, God-provided blessing. We invite any who would like to help to let us know we have jobs for every gift and personality.
Whatever your interests talk to us if you are led to be a part.
Those who are financially able to donate and desire to do so, may donate securely via PayPal with a credit or debit.
Donations will also be accepted at the time of the camp (Cash or check only). Thank you for coming alongside us in providing this unique opportunity for fathers, sons and daughters!
