Field trips scheduled bi-weekly on Wednesdays. Field trips are optional and require additional registration and fees. Those who do not attend a field trip will engage in regularly scheduled activities at the community center.

Children will have the opportunity to sign up for swimming lessons or other on-site programs during the day while attending camp. Staff will take them to and from these activities. Swimming lessons and other on-site programs require an additional fee.
