A Dream Vacation For Kids! *** SOLD OUT ***
The summer of 2016 is a special milestone for Character Camp and we are inviting your Teen to be a part of a very special celebration! We have made reservations to take 30 Teens on a 5-Night cruise to celebrate 30 years of “Building Better Kids”. We will be sailing from the Port of Galveston aboard the Carnival cruise ship “Liberty” on Saturday, July 30th and returning to Galveston on Thursday, August 4th – Fun, Fun, Fun!!!
We did a very similar cruise 5 years ago for our 25th anniversary and those kids, who are now young adults, still talk about the richness of the experience and how much they learned! Even with our cruises, the safety of your child is our very first priority. This is a very safe and an amazing opportunity for your Teen to enjoy first class amenities aboard a world-class cruise liner, encounter other unique cultures abroad and experience personal growth and enrichment through the time-tested teaching and mentoring of hand-picked Character Camp chaperones.
If you are familiar with Character Camp, you already know this event will sell out very quickly. The total cost of this cruise is over $600 per person. For parents who sign up immediately, Character Camp will pay over $200 of the cost. The remaining balance you will need to pay for everything is only $400 per child (which is an unbelievable price for a 5-day summertime cruise with Character Camp safety and mentoring).
A deposit is required to hold the space. The two options Carnival has given us are: 1) a $100 deposit if paid by August 7th or 2) a $200 deposit if paid later than August 7th. Please see the agenda below and pay your deposit online today!
