Our unique weekly summer theme camps for post kindergarteners and school-age children emphasize fun, recreation, adventure, creativity and learning. Our summer camp counselors focus on experiences that encourage children to form positive peer relationships by planning activities like swimming, sports, and popular field trips which enrich the weekly themes.

Hours
Camp hours are 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday-Friday, beginning, Friday, May 27, 2011.  The last day of camp will be announced later.  We will be closed on Monday July 4h, in observance of the Independence Day week-end.

Registration
Registration forms will be available January, 2011.  Due to the popularity of the Summer Adventure Day Camp, you may call prior to January to reserve a membership for your camper and waive the registration fee as an early bird bonus!  Please ask for Miss Carol at 303-757-3551.


 

We are proud of the warmth, diversity and experience of our camp counselors, all of whom have worked for us throughout the years. We have a low ratio of 1counselor for every 10 campers. The counselors have backgrounds in education or in a related field. They are trained and experienced in understanding and meeting children's developmental needs and have had training in CPR/1st Aid.

Our curriculum recognizes that children who have completed Kindergarten through the ages of 14 thrive on challenges, friendships, and responsibility. We provide children with opportunities to dip in the pool, test their courage on our climbing wall, develop their creative skills in arts and crafts, hike in wilderness parks, play group games, cook on a grill, and much more… activities which are planned to enrich the unique weekly themes. Every child is also encouraged to participate in the planning of activities so that the programming will vary to match individual and group interests.
The camp day is a mix of teacher and self directed activities. It includes choice times as well as a group times. This gives the younger children a much needed opportunity to connect with a single teacher and the older children a chance to work on more advanced long term projects.
We love taking field trips 2-3 times a week in our privately owned busses equipped with cell phones and driven by staff with current Commercial Driver’s Licenses. Observatory Park and Eisenhower swimming pool are just a short bus ride away. Some of our other favorite trips include ice-sledding, sunning at the reservoir, getting autographs at the Bronco training camp, sneaking peeks behind the scenes at Invesco, gorging ourselves at Gunther Toody’s, and planning a big day at Pirate’s Cove.

Campers look forward to planning events and field trips centered around weekly themes. “Bronco” riding, a trip to a rodeo, and learning to line dance are just a few of the awesome activities enjoyed during Wild, Wild, West Week. Not all science projects go according to plan………..everyone loves inviting Lord Boron to camp to help celebrate Weird Science Week.

"Your camp counselors have the motivation and experience to create the most successful camp environment in Denver. It was Erik and Emily’s best summer ever!”
