Q: What do I get for my camp fee?
A: For our low camp fee, you have the comfort of knowing your kiddo is in a safe and fun environment where they will be building friendships, confidence and cheer skills. They'll be learning about Jesus and doing a daily devotional to understand how our summer memory verse applies to them. Each camper will be placed in an spirit group that suits them and will be taught by current/past cheerleaders who are FUN and GOD-LOVING. We give each camper a T-shirt and they get to wear it to cheer at our "show off" at the end of the week where parents/guardians are welcome to attend!
​
Q: What will my child do all day?
A: Our Campers have a blast doing all the things. Take a look at our average day on the Camp Schedule page.
​
Q: When do you stop taking registrations?
A: We prefer all campers be registered by the week before their camp begins, so that we can appropriately staff the camp and plan accordingly. However, pending spaces available, we will accept registrations up until the Friday before camp starts.
​
Q: Do I have to pay by credit card?
A: We prefer credit card transactions as that is what our system is set up for. If that is not an option for your family, please contact us to work something out.
​
Q: Are you able to prorate the camp if my child will miss a day or two?
A: We are not able to prorate the camp days. We hire staff for the entire week, as well as plan for craft materials, facility use, and t-shirts for the entire week.
​
Q: What should my kiddo wear to camp?
A: Comfortable athletic clothing, tennis shoes and hair out of face. We do have special attire themed days (Ex: Crazy Hair Day, fav Team Day) and details will be emailed prior to camp. Please have your child dress modest (we prefer for mid-drifts to be covered and shorts to be modest length and fit).
Q: What is an appropriate snack to bring?
A: Any snack not containing nuts (includes peanut butter) is acceptable. We have many kiddos with allergies so our snack policy is peanut-free. Water is a great beverage to provide, however water fountains are available at most of our camp locations.
Q: Can my son attend camp?
A: Anyone within the appropriate age range is welcome at our cheer camps, however our camps are specifically designed for a female audience. We do not teach co-ed partner stunting at our camps.
Q: What qualifications do your coaches have?
A: Our coaches are have extensive cheerleading backgrounds ranging from high school, college, competitive and school coaching. All coaches are trained to lead camps and work with children in a loving way. Some coaches are CPR, First Aid and Ministry Safe trained and all coaches over the age of 18 have passed background check.
Q: What are the signs and risk of a concussion?
A: Our camps are beginner level and extremely low risk relating to any injuries, but our insurance company requests we have information about concussions available to any family attending our camps. We also educate our coaching staff about concussions.
​
Q: What is your refund policy?
A: Cancellations made more than 14 days prior to day one of camp will receive a 100% refund less $35 administration fee and fees from the registration software company. Cancellations after that will NOT receive a refund.

More About Our Mission:
Spirit House Cheer is a Christ-centered Cheerleading summer camp where we combine the EXCITEMENT of cheerleading with the LOVE of God! Our camp is owned and operated by a passionate Mama who has a deep love for both God and cheerleading.
​
Our Owner, Jamie Barrera has been involved in cheerleading for many years and has seen firsthand the IMPACT that this sport can have on young people's lives. She has two girls, Harper & Finley, and their love for cheer is what has driven this endeavor. She has seen how cheerleading can help build CONFIDENCE, develop teamwork skills, and promote a healthy lifestyle. But more importantly, she believes that cheerleading can be a way to GLORIFY God and share His love with others.
At SHC we create a positive and uplifting environment for our campers. We believe that each camper is unique, and we want them to feel VALUED and loved while they are with us. At Spirit House Cheer we start each day with a devotional time where we share stories from the Bible and talk about how it relates to our lives. Each camp focuses on 1 special verse from the Bible and that is what our teachings are based on.
​
Our experienced and enthusiastic coaches work with each camper to help them develop their skills. We offer workshops on stunts, jumps, and tumbling, and we provide plenty of opportunities for our campers to practice their skills and perform in front of their peers. We top the days off with lots of ENTHUSIASM for our teammates and a craft or two along the way.
​
Our camp is not just about cheerleading. We also place a strong emphasis on building relationships and creating a sense of COMMUNITY among our campers. We want our campers to experience the joy of being part of a loving and SUPPORTIVE group.
​
At the end of the day, we come together as a group to reflect on our experiences and give THANKS to God for all that He has done in our lives. We believe that our campers will leave our camp with a deeper understanding of who God is and how much He loves them, as well as with new cheerleading skills and memories that will last a lifetime.
