Activities
Our camps emphasize safe summer fun while enriching the camper’s prior educational knowledge. All campers will be engaging in developmentally appropriate activities related to each camp focus. As a part of camp the children will have the opportunity to participate in the Summer Reading program through the city libraries as we will visit one library per week. Another part of our regular activity will be swimming at the city pools, bowling, and roller skating. Campers will also be participating in games and crafts related to the weekly themes. Campers will have time to socialize with friends and build new relationships.
Campers will be participating in one or more field trips per camp and may be off campus multiple times during the week. Due to the extent of our field trips and craft activities, a $10 activity fee is built into the camp fee.
