We are proud to offer four exciting summer day camp programs for ages 4.5-15:

Summer Blast-80Summer Blast
This general recreation camp offers campers the best that summer has to offer - a wide variety of activities both indoors and outdoors, interesting and fun field trips, with an emphasis on new and lasting friendships and cooperative learning experiences. Arts and crafts, visual and culinary arts, swimming, kayaking, fishing, urban architecture, and nature walks, as well as non-competitive water/sports activities, will help ensure campers have a jam-packed memorable summer break.
Fast Camp-80FAST Sports
Fun, Active, Sports and Teamwork give way to the naming of this exciting, recreational-athletic camp. Participants will be grouped into two age divisions, with the opportunity to develop new skills and refine existing talents in football, baseball, volleyball, basketball, and swimming. They will also be introduced to additional sports such as ultimate frisbee, dodgeball, soccer, and kickball. Teamwork, sportsmanship and positive behavior on and off the field will be emphasized, as those characteristics are the foundation for a successful future. 
Kid Drama-80Kid-Drama Camp
Our campers will have the exciting opportunity to produce a modified-scale musical in just four weeks! Each session will lead its participants through the process of auditioning (everyone gets cast), choreography, staging, and music vocal rehearsals. Parents, family, and friends are invited to see the production the last week of camp!
Adventure Camp-80Outdoor Adventure
This camp is designed to celebrate the great outdoors and allow your child to explore and enjoy nature every day. Basecamp will be at Lodi’s beloved 58-acre Lodi Lake and Nature Area. Outdoor learning and adventures will include nature walks and hikes, themed outdoor games, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, nature-based crafts and experiments, and docent-led tours and demonstrations that highlight the park’s animals, insects, and ecosystems. 


Counselors-in-Training program (CIT)
Designed for young teens ages 13-15, CIT’s are part of the camp team! They will work, play and train alongside camp staff and assist in providing a quality camp experience for the younger participants. CIT’s will help the children make new friends, learn to redirect unwanted behaviors, mediate and troubleshoot minor issues, and assist with planning and implementing fun and adventurous activities. They will also attend and assist with all field trips as part of their training. Ultimately, the CIT obtain job skills, understand expectations and follow through, and take away practical work experiences that will help them with future employment within our own camp programs. Due to high demand, there will also be an application and interview process preceding registration. Registrants not chosen for the program will receive a full refund.
