Campers are invited to explore California’s majesty this summer, with the summer theme: California Adventure. Ultimate Day Camp (UDC) provides a traditional camp environment for Campers 6-12 years old (age 5 years if they have completed Transitional Kindergarten and age 13 only if they have not completed 7th grade). Campers are separated by the grades they are entering for the majority of the day, but start and end the day together. Trekkers (entering grades K-1, Venturers (entering grades 2-3), Explorers (entering grades 4-7). Room divisions subject to change, based on enrollment. Camp is closed on Monday, July 4.

All Campers in attendance will be provided a morning and afternoon snack. Registration fees include 1 Camp t-shirt (must be worn on all Camp field trips; additional shirts may be purchased for $15). Campers should bring to camp daily: sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, water, closed-toe shoes and a healthy lunch.

Each week Campers will travel virtually to a diverse California location. Weekly activities include: craft time, weekly science experiments and cooking lessons, outdoor play and sports, cool crafts, Camp Fire time (stories, skits and songs), two swimming trips, an off-site excursion and an on-site special adventure or guest speaker… as well as some good old fashioned un-structured PLAY time.
