Kauai Five-O

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to arrive at Kanakuk’s K-Kauai Family Kamp, dress as if you’re on vacation with your family, have the time of your life with fellow island dwellers, and when given the signal, assemble your fellow agents for a mission that’s truly . . . impossible. You’ll want to look the part and know the lingo, so await the mission briefing for further instructions. This message will self-destruct in 5, 4, 3, 2, ….
Kandy Land

It’s time for family game night — K-Kauai style! Whether you’re winning the game of LIFE, flying down Chutes and Ladders, conquering your own game of Risk, or yelling Yahtzee!, we can guarantee you won’t be BOARD! Gather your crew, roll the dice, and get ready for a night of nonstop fun, twists, and turns as we travel from the Boardwalk to the Kandy Land kingdom without ever leaving the Island!
Wave Rave

The waves are the only thing crashing this party! Grab your swimsuit (you’re gonna get wet!), goggles, swim caps, and a fin-tastic look as we hit the ocean (dance) floor for a party that is shore to catch the island beat. As the current pulls you past the pipeline, get ready for an experience full of fun as finned friends from the deep gather for this once-in-a-term experience you’ve gotta sea to believe!

WHY WE DO PARTIES

Theme parties are a foundational piece of what we do here at Kanakuk every summer! Our exciting and over-the-top parties are a Kamp favorite and provide the opportunity for Kampers to grow in confidence, make new friends, and have a ton of fun! All of these elements combine to carry out Joe White and Kanakuk’s mission of equipping next generation leaders.

Which Parties will my Kamper participate in?
To see which parties your Kamper should be prepared for, start by selecting their Kamp at the top of the page. Each Kamp offers different parties to their Kampers, and sometimes change based on term, so be sure to plan for the parties that will be offered during your Kamper’s term.
How elaborate do costumes need to be?
When it comes to preparing your Kamper’s costumes, the sky is the limit! We strive to offer costume ideas for every level of ability—so whether your Kamper wants to bring a simple costume or dress to the nines, we’re pretty sure they’re going to have a blast no matter what!
Are Kampers supervised during parties?
Like all activities that are offered at Kanakuk, your Kamper will remain under the care of our professional staff during all parties at Kanakuk. Parties give our staff the unique opportunity to join in the fun and bring their best costumes and excitement to every party we offer!
What if my Kamper doesn’t want to bring a costume?
Kampers aren’t required to bring a costume for any of the parties we offer, but as a Kamper favorite for decades, we think they should! Parties have the ability of creating memories for Kampers in a safe and clean environment, free from the things our world tells us we need.
Who should I contact if I have more questions?
If you have additional questions about this year's parties or need any assistance with your Kamper’s registration, contact us here and one of our wonderful registrars will assist you!
