Beach Day

Every Thursday during summer camp, we head to the beach for a day full of classic summer fun and unforgettable experiences. Campers enjoy building sandcastles, playing group games, and swimming in the water with friends, all under the close supervision of our trained staff. Safety is always our top priority, with clear beach and swim boundaries, constant head counts, buddy systems, and age-appropriate activities in place. Water play is carefully monitored and only takes place when conditions are safe, and we encourage regular sunscreen application, hydration, and shade breaks throughout the day. With first aid supplies on hand and attentive counselors at all times, our lake days are designed to be both exciting and well-managed—sending kids home happy, sandy, and full of great summer memories.

Water Games

Nothing says summer like our Water Days! Campers get ready to run, slide, and soak up the fun on our giant slip-and-slide, complete with sprinklers, water guns, and plenty of laughter. These days are packed with high-energy games, team challenges, and opportunities to cool off while enjoying the sunshine with friends. Safety is always our top priority: our trained staff supervise every activity, ensure the play area is secure, and provide clear instructions for safe water play. Campers are encouraged to wear appropriate swimwear, apply sunscreen, and stay hydrated, so everyone can enjoy the excitement worry-free. Water Days are all about joy, friendship, and making memories that last long after the last splash!
