End of Summer Camp
This summer, we’re extending the fun! Thanks to the School District’s longer break, our new End of Summer Day Camp brings together the best of all our summer camp experiences into one exciting camp. Each week offers something new and different. Campers will enjoy camp-wide activities and age-specific games, crafts, wacky science experiments, free play, playground time and sports, and a weekly field trip. Safety is a top priority, with the buddy system always in place. Every camper receives a camp T-shirt.
Required Supplies:Campers should wear comfortable play clothes, & gym shoes. Each day please bring a sack lunch, water, sunscreen and bug spray. On water play/pool days, a swimsuit and towel are required.
