Boot Camp (Current 7th - 12th Graders)
During Boot Camp, students from incoming 8th grade to graduated seniors spend their days training to lead BackYard Bible Clubs and then lead these clubs in the evenings throughout South and Central Austin. The students learn valuable leadership and teamwork skills, while they hone their ability to effectively share the gospel. Every night after the clubs, the students come together for large group worship and teaching.
Boot Camp happens from June 23 - 28.
BackYard Bible Clubs (Incoming K - 4th Grade)

Special Needs Family Camp, designed for individuals with all abilities, include learning about Jesus through creative storytelling, engaging worship, and interactive play.
There is also a siblings camp for the siblings of our special needs friends, and a parent/caretaker camp designed for those that care for special needs' individuals.
Special Needs Family Camp happens every day from July 8 - 11 from 5:30-7:30pm at the Lakeline location (12124 RR 620 N, Austin, TX 78750).

Xtreme Adventure (Current 4th - 6th Graders)

Four teams of students compete throughout the week to earn points through wild games, exciting competitions, fun memory verse challenges, and more! The week concludes with an event — Final Battle — where one team is named the "winner" of the week.
We highly encourage students to invite at least one friend to join them at XA 2024, as it's a great opportunity to learn about Jesus while having a great time
