OUR PROGRAMS

Junior Camp

Pre-K through completion of Kindergarten

Our Junior Camp programs are designed for campers to enjoy big opportunities for fun and growth in a supportive setting.

OVERVIEW

New Skills in a Nurturing Setting

Junior campers spend each day with friends and loving, attentive counselors who teach new skills and provide care and encouragement. Campers gain the benefits of small-camp environment with all the resources of a larger camp. A wide range of summer activities are enjoyed in a nurturing setting. This atmosphere fosters social and physical development, builds confidence and creates success. With scaled down versions of the same games and activities as the “big kids”, Junior campers use equipment and playing fields that have been specifically developed for the younger child. Every day is a mix of imaginative play, skill-building activities and quieter time for slowing things down.
