That's a relevant question for at least two reasons - that tends to be one of the ministries that involves the most people and volunteers, and because your ministry audience (the kids) is different from who you communicate with (the parents). They also have an opportunity to interact with families that may have no clue as to what goes on inside a church but their little Billy seems to like to go to church camp with his friend Jimmy. Having the two teams work together on this avoids a ton of duplication of effort (and the creative people needed) while making sure that the ministry is fulling in charge of their program as well as the message they want to convey.
