For the past 26 Years, Royal Family KIDS Lancaster has provided a safe fun summer camp to foster children in the Antelope Valley. We show these children the love of Jesus by swimming, hiking, doing crafts, archery, having tea or a sports clinic and with our Everybodys Birthday Party. We are able to do this by partnering with individuals and business who have the same vision, make a difference in the life of a child. We are successful because of our team of volunteers. We have a teen staff that helps our cabin staff and a large support staff to operate all the activities.
After camp during the school year participating campers are matched 1- to-1 with a trained mentor from the RFK Camp team. Mentors must complete additional training, criminal background checks, reference checks and fingerprinting. Mentors meet a minimum of 4 hours with their mentee during the month having fun and building a healthy adult-to-child relationship. Mentors and their kids also meet once a month for Club. At club the children enjoy the same songs, games, activities and friends they remember from camp. In addition field trips are planned, train rides, parks, parades, etc. Birthdays are celebrated as are the holidays. Each child receives an adventure book, club t-shirt, backpack, etc. As with camp, each child is treated like royalty.
