Due to our commitment to Covid-19 safety for all campers and staff, only half of the usual spaces are available for summer 2021. To make locating remaining camp spots as easy as possible for camp parents, we have provided the links below. We are currently working to expand classroom space available for the summer, and may be able to add camp spots in these news areas – please check back if you don’t see you camp as currently available or use the browser below to search our variety of virtual camps that are still available.
