Friend Friday

Friend Fridays are an opportunity for our community to see esp in action during our favorite time of the year: summer camp!

We invite you to start your morning knowing you’ve made a difference at esp’s “Flag”! Flag is a special time to recognize participants for their successes during camp each week. Each Friday of day camp, we invite our community to experience this special morning ritual with Friend Fridays.


8:30 am – 9 am: Arrival — Check in, grab a name tag, and fill up on some Java Joy coffee!

9:30 am: Flag! Get ready to participate in esp’s morning ceremonies, including fun camp songs, crowd participants, and highlighting the accomplishments of our campers through Brags. You may even be called in the circle yourself!

10:30 am: Say goodbye to your awesome esp friends and head into your work day refreshed and full of the esp magic.


Where it is: The esp Building! Check in with us and then feel free to start taking in all of the esp magic.


What to wear: Something casual that you don’t mind getting a little hot in! Be prepared for the summer heat – we’ll be outside the whole time!

Anybody and everybody! Friend Friday’s are open to the public and are a great way to experience esp first hand!
