Crosstown Kids are invited to celebrate Kickoff Sunday by wearing their WinShape gear or dressing in their village colors (1st&2nd grades - Ocean Blue / 3rd&4th grades - Safari Red / 5th&6th grades - Alpine Green).

It's breakfast for dinner at our Kickoff Week Spirit Nights! Celebrate by wearing your WinShape Camp swag or your village colors with your pajama pants. Adults, Spirit Nights will be awesome for you too. Not only do you not have to cook, we will have free samples of CFA's NEW frosted coffee waiting for you. Don't miss this fun night, we will be giving away some amazing prizes including camp gear and a CFA gift basket with a BIG camp discount! Come on out and enjoy a night at Chick-fil-A with your WinShape friends and help support this amazing camp! A percentage of the total sales for the evening will go to our camper scholarship fund.
