Let’s show Rock Island what Jordan Catholic is all about—faith, family, and a whole lot of heart.

Roaring Fun in Week 6: Dinosaur Discovery! 🦖
What an incredible adventure we had during Week 6 of Jordan's Summer Camp! Our "Dinosaur Discovery" theme was a prehistoric party, and our campers became true paleontologists.

The excitement continued with a thrilling dino scavenger hunt and an amazing ice egg excavation where they unearthed hidden surprises! Our creative campers also crafted fantastic cardboard dino heads, completed a collaborative dino bulletin board project, and made vibrant dino dot paintings. It was a truly dino-mite week!
