FIRE Camp was birthed in 2004 by the heart and vision in Heather & Jim Idoni. For 2 years they carried and nurtured FIRE Camp into a wonderful season of fellowship for homeschool families. In 2006, with much support from the Idoni’s, Vicki & Kevin Hughes were blessed to be given the opportunity to run with the FIRE Camp vision under their ministry, Chrysalis Family Ministries. FIRE Camp is run with a vision for Fellowship, Inspiration, Refreshment & Encouragement for Christian homeschool families. FIRE Camp is not run for a profit. Every penny is sowed right back into the camp events and activities.
