Outdoor Retreat And Ministries Camp - they have two locations and lots of great camps for all ages of kids. Check them out at www.niccamp.org. That's where I send all of the kiddos from Channahon UMC - typically 20+ each summer!

A specific camp for the 6 th grader would be Catch the Spirit at East Bay in Hudson, Il. My husband and I help to counsel that camp. It is part of the United Methodist church but we welcome and love all denominations!! It is an amazing week of God's love shown and learned in many different ways. She can check to see if there is another camp that same week or another week at www.igrc.org for her 5 th grader! I love Catch the Spirit and recommend it to everyone who falls in the age group that I knew!

Lake Springfield Baptist Camp has amazing directors and counselors that put on wonderfully Biblical and fun camps! I've spent the last 22 years as a camper, counselor director or on the board there. It has a special place in my heart. Meet Jesus, great friends and my husband at LSBC! Www.lsbconline.com

East Bay & Little Galillee (sp?) are part of the United Methodist Church summer camps. If you go to igrc.org and click on camping it gives you camps all over Illinois ran by the U.M. church, for here in the Springfield area my children go to Lake Springfield Christian Assembly also.
