Absolutely! We encourage families to attend one of our Open House events or schedule a private tour to see our facilities and meet our staff.
We make sure everyone is included, regardless of ability or background. We offer an inclusion program in our traditional camp for children who would benefit from it, as well as a dedicated camp for children with special needs. Contact us to schedule an interview for us to determine which program is right for your child.
One thing that makes our camp so special is that we offer year-round programming so that the fun doesn’t have to stop when summer ends! These programs give kids opportunities to have fun and see their friends again—plus, they make it so much easier to pass the long months between summers!
Year-round programs include weekend camp nights, music lessons, and school’s out, sports, aquatic and family programs.
Follow us on Facebook to get the latest updates on our youth and family programs!
