Group Descriptions

Discovery Group (Ages 3-5)

Our 3-5 year old age group or “Discovery Camp” will be structured and themed. Carefully created by educators that know what this age group loves and needs, these weekly themes and daily schedules will keep your child engaged while also making them feel comfortable discovering new concepts. After the summer is over they will have the built in structure that will get them ready for Preschool and/or the expectations of Kindergarten while building new friendships!

Exploration Group (Ages 6-8)

Our 6-8 year old age group or “Exploration Group” will have the choice to explore what they are passionate about! The weekly themes from the discovery group turn into concepts. The campers in this group will maintain a structured daily schedule while also allowing them to choose between planned activities. These campers will have options of sports, arts, outdoors and much more. This is the grand age of exploration and finding what fits their personalities!

Choose Your Own Adventure Group (Ages 9-12)

Our 9-12 year old age group or “Choose your own Adventure Group” is in charge of their own day giving them flexibility within our daily structure. Each child will be able to choose their way through the Summer by voting on what the activities will look like that day. This age group focuses on choices that lead their day in activities they know they are passionate about. We focus on giving this group a voice while mentoring them into being great leaders. Engaging them in conversation and having them lead some activities for the younger groups that they feel proud of will spark their imagination and give them a voice while also having a fun time with their peers.
