Summer Camps

It’s time to start planning all of that endless summer fun we’ve so been looking forward to, and our Summer Camps guide is full of some of our favorites!

The all-day programs at The Summit are fresh and packed full of fun for all children, preschool through grade 8.

The Traditional Day Camp services ages 3-6 for nine weeks of summer (Monday-Friday 9a-3p) with each week hosting a theme to center the crafts and games. Your children will be all smiles as they explore the arts, take cooking lessons, get outdoors, and unplug. Extended Day will be offered beginning at 8 am and again after camp, from 3-4 pm.

“My youngest loves the traditional day camp with the weekly themes. My middle child enjoys robotics and STEM camps and there are plenty to choose from to keep him busy. This year my high school kid will take the ACT prep college essay class to be ready for his college applications. The Summit has exceptional programs that my children really enjoy and at a good value compared to other summer programs.” – Beth, camp parent

Get ready for a world of discovery in the Primrose Schools Summer Adventure Club. New adventurers and old friends power up imaginations with fun experiences and exciting activities like building robots, creating digital art, taking on engineering challenges and playing sports. Each of the 12 weeks holds new adventures, learning experiences and super field trips. Tuition includes all field trips, before and after care, snacks, hot meals, water bottles, and a camp t-shirt. Contact the Primrose School of Symmes directly for more information.

One of the things we love about this camp option is how flexible the schedule is – while camp runs from 9 to 3:30, extended hours of 6:45 a.m. to 6:15 p.m. are included at NO EXTRA COST. You can really make this one work for you and your summer needs! Do you work full time? No problem; sign your little one up for the entire summer!

This camp is open to children who have completed kindergarten through fifth grade.

Enjoy a variety of theatrical themes for ages 7-18! Focus on music, dance, drama, or all three! All levels welcome. TCT’s weeklong camps will feature a variety of activities designed to prepare your student for their final performance and to expand their knowledge of multiple theatre disciplines.  Camps are weekly and run from 9:30 am – 4:00 pm.

Registration is open February 15 – May 15. *Camps are filling quickly, so act fast!

Spark your child’s curiosity and creativity with their all-new Camp Invention® program, Wonder! Campers in grades K-6 will collaborate with friends to take on fun, hands-on STEM challenges. From building a mini skate park to launching a pop-up shop to transforming a robot into a stuffie, each experience adds up to an imagination-stretching, confidence-boosting summer.

“I’m a teacher and have been working with the great camp for several years. The students love it soooooo much! They have fun while thinking outside of the box!” – Carrie

“…we just weren’t sure if Blake would like a full-week camp. But, we made the leap, and it turned out to be everything we had hoped for. We honestly thought Blake was done with baseball, but now it’s all he talks about. We are Reds Family for life thanks to you guys. See you next Summer!”

Ursuline is excited to offer a wide variety of special interest and athletic summer camps for girls entering 1st through 9th grade. These fun-filled camps are for girls only and are under the direction of Ursuline Academy faculty and staff. Each registration includes a camp t-shirt.

First comes camp registration and then comes packing camp lunches!

We hope to ease some of that burden by providing you some ideas. Each idea meets a different need and will provide you with some different ideas of lunches to pack.

Overnight camp feels like a rite of passage.

After hearing rave reviews about the YMCA Camp Kern experience, I decided to take a risk and let go of control (because, yes, that is what it felt like to me) for one week out of the summer and see what would happen.
