Camp Sonshine is committed to offering families the highest quality programs and a fun, faith-filled environment for campers to thrive in. At Camp Sonshine we’re all about providing a place to
“BELONG & BECOME” through unique camp experiences! There are day camps and overnight camps.
No matter which program your camper attends, every Camp Sonshine experience is built around our Three Uniques, the foundation of everything we do:
Active Supervision – Our well-trained staff are engaged, attentive, and present all day long. Campers are cared for intentionally, helping families feel confident their children are safe, supported, and known.
Active Imagination – From creative play to outdoor adventure, campers are encouraged to explore, try new things, and engage their imagination in ways that build confidence and joy.
Active Community – Campers are placed in small groups led by caring counselors who prioritize relationships—helping kids build friendships, feel a sense of belonging, and grow socially and spiritually.
A Program for Every Camper
Camp Sonshine offers a variety of programs designed to meet campers where they are:
- Day Camps – Full days packed with classic camp activities and outdoor fun, with the convenience of heading home each evening. Two locations near Roca and one near Firth, Nebraska!
- Overnight Camps – Immersive experiences where campers build independence, community, and lifelong memories away from home. Location near Firth, Nebraska!

Business Review
"We’ve been attending several years, at first we needed childcare but now that she’s older and even though we no longer need that we continue to send her because of the bonds she forms with her counselors and the age appropriate activities. These counselors have become like older sisters to her and such great role models. LIFE CHANGING!"
"As a parent, it makes me feel great knowing that my child is in the care of someone that shows them genuine love and care, as you did. Thank you for your hard work this summer! You will never know how beautifully sprouted the seeds you have planted will someday become."
