Christ Church Summer Camp in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Welcome to Christ Church Summer Camp. Our camp is all about your child. Our goal is that every child will have a fun, entertaining summer experience while being introduced to a variety of new activities, challenges and new friends. I love children and I love day camp! I fell in love with summer camp during high school and college while working at another local camp. I always knew I would return to day camp, and my dream came true three summers ago when I joined the staff at Westminster Academy®.

Two summers ago I joined the staff at Christ Church as the Minister to Children & Families. As the Camp Director I have the pleasure of working with a young energetic staff that is equally as enthusiastic about summer camp and your child. We are not the oldest camp. We are not the largest camp. But we are a great camp! My philosophy is simple. You are entrusting us with your most valuable possession. It is our job to responsibly care for your child while providing fun activities that will challenge them mentally, physically and creatively.  

I grew up in Fort Lauderdale. I went to Floranada Elementary School, Rickards Middle School, St. Mark’s, Northeast High and Stetson University. My husband, Paul, is a lawyer.  We have two sons, Alex and Will. When they are not at school or camp (they’re both counselors), they play a lot of baseball!

Please call me or e-mail me with any questions you have about camp.  At this time of the year, I am forced to be in the office a lot, but this summer expect to find me outside. I was the kickball champion in the 5th grade. I LOVE kickball, I LOVE arts and crafts,  I LOVE four-square, I DO NOT understand the popularity of dodgeball (but I still let the campers play it), and I proudly display my “Best Camper” awards from 1972 & 1973 in the camp office J.

If you would like to know anything else, just ask.

I look forward to another great summer with your delightful children.

Sincerely,

Lauren Dunn Buschmann
Camp Director
