Jerry’s Dream Camp

 

Building Community Changers


Jerry’s Dream Camp is a special camp sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Pleasant Grove in Dallas, Texas, made possible through grants from the Kiwanis Children’s Fund and faithful club fundraising.

This summer Camp is offered FREE of charge for children ages 8–11 who apply through the Kiwanis Club.

This camp was named in memory of Jerry Diffee, a longtime Kiwanis member and one of the founding leaders of Hidden Acres, whose dream was to provide a safe sanctuary where inner-city youth could experience joy, community, and the love of Christ. Today, his vision lives on as campers enjoy two weeks filled with endless fun, great food, caring staff, and opportunities to grow both spiritually and relationally.

For many years, the Kiwanis Club of Pleasant Grove has faithfully provided scholarships for youth from their community, and Hidden Acres is grateful to partner with them in impacting lives and raising up future leaders.

If you are a parent or guardian in the Pleasant Grove area, we invite you to connect with the Kiwanis Club of Pleasant Grove to learn how to apply for summer camp and leadership retreats. Visit their website below for details.
