Summer Programs

Each year the FCSS team gears up for a summer of fun and excitement as we organize and facilitate summer activities across Lamont County for children 4-17 years old.

Summer camps are offered to children from grades one to six and run for two weeks in July and August in communities across the County. Each week offers regular “in community” days consisting of outdoor activities and fun as well as two offsite fieldtrips.

Camps are located in the Town of Lamont, Town of Bruderheim, Town of Mundare, and the Village of Chipman.

During this time, we welcome an additional ten members to the FCSS family consisting of five Program Leaders and five LITs (Leaders in Training). Together with the guidance of our Program Coordinators, this team organizes and executes our programming County wide.
