TopKid
Summer Camp with Character

A full-day summer day camp at Lord of Life Lutheran Church in Columbus - sports, games, creativity, and service projects built around five core character traits kids carry with them all year.

Why TopKid?

Real learning takes multiple interactions with a trusted person - one-and-done doesn't work. Every TopKid program is built around repeated, meaningful touchpoints so kids develop a real sense of understanding and have opportunities to apply what they've learned.

We also believe school communities are the true building blocks of helping children succeed. That's why every program TopKid runs gives a portion of proceeds back to the elementary schools your child attends.
