SUMMER DAY CAMP

AGES 6-14

We are proud to offer a summer of fun and special events designed to help campers make new friends and build self-confidence. Children will get to spend the majority of their day outside enjoying the great outdoors at this authentic style day camp. Don't worry, sunscreen will be liberally applied throughout each day to keep your child's skin healthy and happy! Weekly activities and trips are scheduled around themes, and campers will have the opportunity to go on two field trips a weeks as well as swim at least twice a week.
