Each camp session includes active play time in a school playcourt and at a local park, and extended care includes outdoor activities, stations, and skill-building activities. Kid-approved weekly themes such as Farmers Market, DIY Hub, Ren Faire, Wildlife Art Inspiration, and others are used as the basis of group and individual projects, and campers team up to host a Renaissance Faire, hold craft fairs, put on talent shows, and compete in silly sporting events. Free choice station time uses rotating materials based on campers’ interests and engagement, and optional extended care is offered until 5:30 pm as a weekly add-on for every session.
