MISSION Motivated by God’s love, The Salvation Army Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center’s mission is to meet the needs of our community through: Boundless Opportunity, Experiential Knowledge, Holistic Growth, Progressive Challenge, Relevant Skill and Meaningful Success.

PURPOSE The Salvation Army Ray & Joan Kroc Corps Community Center provides opportunities that facilitate positive, life-changing experiences through: arts, athletics, personal development, spiritual discovery and community service.

Dear Parents: Summer is at our doorstep once again. We love summer and the opportunity it provides for us to spend time with our children. But summer also gives us pause for concern. We’ve asked each other this question for several years: “What are our kids going to do while we’re at work?” We’re obviously pleased to support the Kroc Center’s Day Camp program as the Center’s Administrators, but especially proud to refer you to this program as parents. Though tired, our children come home enthused by the day’s activities, encouraged by the staff, and inspired by the values they’ve learned. If you were to ask us why this program is so important to us, We answer by telling you children are important to us. At the core of The Salvation Army’s mission is the certain belief that God values children, and that we’re given the responsibility to help them discover the wide-open horizon of His creation – free from the harmful influences surrounding them. Your children – our children – are not the future. Our children are today, because who they become today shapes the future. Thank you for entrusting your children to our care. Personal regards,

Captains John & Lisa Van Cleef Administrators

Dear Parents, When it comes to the care of your children over the summer, we know you have countless provider choices. And with so many options available, it is up to you to choose the right fit for your family. There are several compelling factors that set the Kroc Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day Camp program apart from the rest. They can be summed up in two words: BOUNDLESS OPPORTUNITY. At the Kroc Center Day Camp, your child has the opportunity to play and grow in a safe environment. Your camper can test their physical abilities on the playing field, or the limits of their creativity in the art room, all with the guidance of supportive counselors. Through Peacebuilders, your child has the opportunity to make new friends, cherishing commonalities among some, and learning to respect the differences among others. Your child has the opportunity to learn new skills; from letting go of the wall in the Ice Arena to memorizing all of the words to RJâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rally Cry, each new experience provides campers with a world of possibilities. At the Kroc Center Day Camp our facilities allow for many opportunities: your child can cool off in one of our outdoor pools; perform on stage at the beautiful Joan B. Kroc Theatre; tap into their imagination in our computer lab and childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s library; chill in the Ice Arena and challenge themselves at the climbing tower - all without ever setting foot outside of the Kroc Center. Most importantly, the Kroc Center Day Camp provides your child with the opportunity to become a part of our community: a place with positive values, open minds, and warm smiles that she or he can call their own. The Kroc Center Day Camp strives to welcome each camper into this community, providing him or her with the opportunity to develop mentally, physically, and emotionally. These are our goals: To facilitate personal growth and safety. To develop social and cultural awareness and respect. To develop skills in activity-specific areas. To have fun! I look forward to seeing you and your camper this summer. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me directly at 619.269.1467 or e-mail me at andrea.sanford@usw.salvationarmy.org .
