Campers are immersed in hands-on science activities on Mondays with STEM Day! Campers cool off on Mondays with a visit from the Kona Ice Truck each week.
Each Tuesday, campers take a field trip to the Cascade Pool for swimming, swim lessons, water fun and active games (weeks 1-10) or Piney Run Park to experience all the fishing, basketball, tennis, playgrounds and hiking trails the park has to offer (weeks 11 & 12).
Wednesdays are Sports Days! Campers learn and practice basketball, soccer, tennis, kickball and more! Got Game? You will after this Summer!
Our field trip on Thursdays takes us to various local recreation sites and adventure trips including bowling, roller skating and ice skating.
Wrap up each week with a unique Fun Friday Event and optional Lunch Bunch!
