5 Day Specialty Program
Your camper gets to choose their favorite activity!
This summer, campers can participate in our 5-Day Specialty Program! Each camper will choose one of four specialties—Arts & Crafts, Sports Conditioning, Theater, or Lego Building—and spend one hour each day for five days immersed in their selected activity. It’s a great opportunity to explore interests, build skills, and have fun!
