Camper Choices Make For
THE BEST SUMMER!
Campers and their families are the first priority in every decision we make. After all, partnering with families is an enormous part of our success at Out & About Day Camp. To support our family-friendly policy, we keep in close communication with our camp families all year long.
We treasure individual strengths and nurture self-confidence and self-expression through our camp activities. As part of our commitment to meeting every child’s needs, we’re equipped and eager to offer plenty of personalized attention, a variety of activities for your child to choose from, and a supportive environment. Out & About Day Camp will exceed your expectations and the expectations of your child!
Out & About Day Camp provides customized flexibility. Campers participate in the activities that THEY like! With our “Active Options and Clubs” component, campers have a say in making their summer a memorable one.
We Make Summer Fun!
Each week, campers get to choose from a wide variety of activities that make our camp unique. Typically, this list includes more than 20 exciting activities that will take place over the course of that week. Campers who are attending less than 5 days per week should avoid choosing activities which culminate in either a large group project or a performance.
