6th Grade Camp
August 21–23, 2026
At 6th Grade Camp, the content from the stage, small group activities, and exciting games are shared experiences designed to jump-start friendships and strengthen bonds in your student’s new small group. The memories created at this camp will become a foundation they will build upon throughout their years in Transit. Most importantly, this weekend will help students begin to discover and pursue a faith of their own.
This camp is the best place for your student to start their middle school years.
Registration is Open!

Frequently Asked Questions
This is my student’s first away camp, and I’m nervous about it. What safety precautions are in place?
Every small group has dedicated adult leaders who have been background checked and trained. Additionally, our Transit staff, event volunteers, certified lifeguards, and medical professionals will be on site at all times.
Will there be a medical professional at 6th Grade Camp?
Yes. We will have nurses present throughout the event. If your student is on medication, we will collect their medication at check-in along with instructions for administering the medication. Our nurses, along with your student’s small group leaders, will help ensure your student takes their medication correctly.
What if my student has a food allergy?
Please indicate this in your student’s registration. We will do our best to accommodate your student’s food allergy.
What if my student doesn’t know many other students going to camp?
What if my student has a conflicting event or game?
You won’t regret prioritizing 6th Grade Camp. Bring your student to camp late or pick them up early. Attending some camp is better than no camp time!
Will phones or smartwatches be allowed for this event?
In order to maximize your student’s overall camp experience and limit distractions, all cell phones and smartwatches will be collected at check-in on Friday. (We prefer that they leave these at home.) Small group leaders will keep them in a bag in case of an emergency and return them after we leave camp on Sunday. You can contact your student’s small group leaders or a Transit staff member if you need to reach your student in the event of an emergency.
How will parents be contacted in case of an emergency?
Someone on our staff will call the phone number you provided us when you registered your student.
Where is 6th Grade Camp?
We host camp at the Georgia FFA-FCCLA Center.
Will there actually be “camping” at 6th Grade Camp?
No. 6th Grade Camp is not a camping trip. Small groups stay in air-conditioned cabins. Don’t worry about packing a tent.
Is there financial assistance available?
We offer financial assistance to families who need help due to a financial hardship. After the team reviews your application, they will determine if your student qualifies for a reduced rate and the amount. Our funding is limited, so a reduced rate is not guaranteed. This application will close when regular registration ends.
