Our COVID-19 Response for 2020 at a glance.
Small Groups
Taking the childcare guidance from the WA DOH we’re keeping groups at an average of 11 people including staff members. As a result groups will be assigned to new activities each day to participate in as a small group so that each child gets to experience all that Fircreek has to offer.
Health Screening
Following the guidance of the WA DOH and the Bellingham School District we are daily screening all staff, children and parents who step foot on the Fircreek grounds. Checking for fever, cough or shortness of breath. Also, we are asking all parents to keep their kids home if they aren’t feeling well.
Additional Cleaning & Hand Washing
We have added additional cleaning procedures to the management of our facilities using recommended practices from the CDC and WA DOH. We also champion hand washing at Fircreek including scheduled hand washing times twice daily.

Fircreek Day Camp is…
Fircreek Day Camp is one of two children’s camps at The Firs in Bellingham, Washington, and is located in a picturesque wooded area within walking distance of its own waterfront property. Fircreek provides a non-stop week of great adventure for children entering grades one through six.
From swimming & boating on beautiful Lake Whatcom, to sports & games, creative crafts, singing, and all manner of silliness, summer weeks at Fircreek are packed with fun for campers. Located in an ideal setting for a children’s program, Fircreek is dedicated to modeling love and respect for each individual child.
Each and every child...
Each and every child at Fircreek Day Camp is precious to us. Therefore, we provide a caring environment that is activity-based, action-packed and full of fun, where children can succeed and feel great about themselves and others. We carefully select and train our staff members, who are dedicated to the care & support of your child.
We believe that each child is important to God.
Although we do not focus on denominational or religious distinctions, we are consistent with our mission by presenting the Biblical message of Jesus. We have a blast and we let kids know that God is a part of it.
Fircreek is a place where healthy, positive love flows and we give God credit for it while respecting your child’s beliefs and freedoms.
We have a blast!
At Fircreek Day Camp, there are more activities than there are hours in a day! From tree houses, zip lines, archery, various sporting activities, fabulous arts and crafts, to endless adventure on Fircreek’s own private waterfront, campers will never run out of things to do. Each week we explore the many “Adventure Zones” of Fircreek along with wild and zany all-camp games and team competitions every day!
