It is that time again, Camp and Conference Scholarship applications have been updated, posted at the links below and ready are for submission. Applications are due Friday, April 19, 2024 to allow for processing time. As a Presbytery we believe that summer camps and conferences are an important experience in faith development for children and youth. The Presbytery has set aside $6,200.00 to provide scholarships for children and youth to attend summer camps and conferences.

Summer camp can plant a seed of renewal in your groups and help you bring everyone together. These trips bring the closest groups even closer. They are so important in the spiritual formation of our youth. Many of the Camp and Conference Centers Have released their summer program schedules. Montreat , Camp Montogomery and Cedarkirk all have registration open for their summer programs. There are many other options for summer camps and conferences; scholarships are limited to PC(USA) affiliated camps and centers but not limited to Montreat, Camp Montgomery or Cedarkirk.

Please help me get the word out about the Camp and Conference Scholarships. We don’t want any youth to wish they had not missed an experience. Especially a Jesus centered experience. 



Scholarship Requirements:
  • Presbytery camp and conference scholarship may be awarded to children and youth (elementary through high school) attending a PC(USA) church that actively supports the Central Florida Presbytery. Churches demonstrate support in any of the following ways: 1) active service by their members on Presbytery committees; 2) financial support for the shared mission and work of the Presbytery; and 3) active participation in Presbytery youth activities.
  • The camp or conference must be a Presbyterian Church (USA)-affiliated camp or conference.
  • All scholarship requests must be filed on a Church Scholarship Application form. Individual forms will no longer be accepted (unless submitted through the church).
  • Scholarships will be given out on a first-come, first-served basis, with only one scholarship being given per person.
  • The scholarship money will be sent directly to the church. It will be the church’s responsibility to pay the camp or conference. All checks will be made payable to the church the request originated from.
  • Churches will be sent the scholarship check by Wednesday, May 1, 2024. The amount of the scholarships will be: $50 for 5–6-day camps/conferences; $25 for 3–4-day camps/conferences; $10 for 1–2-day camps or conferences.
  • No more than 1/3 of the registration cost of the camp or conference regardless of length.
  • The committee reserves the right to decrease the scholarship award in the event a larger number of requests are received.
  • If a child/youth does not attend the camp/conference and another child/youth does not take their place, the church is asked to return the unused scholarship to the Presbytery.

Please download a PDF or WORD version of the 2024 Camp and Conference Scholarship Application below, fill out the Church Scholarship Application form and return it to: Central Florida Presbytery; Attn. Camp Scholarship, 3101 Maguire Blvd., Ste. 244, Orlando, FL 32803. Scan and send by email to Cheryl Carson, [email protected].

Please use one form per camp or conference (multiple students can be added to each form). Scholarship checks will be mailed to the church where the application originated from and will be payable to the church. Adult chaperones may apply for up to 1/3rd of the conference fees through the Lange Scholarship Fund (download the Lange Scholarship application from the CFP webpage at http://www.cfpresbytery.org/)
