Day Camp Program

“A day camp that has the closeness and feel of a resident camp.”

Our day camp focuses on activities and games that create a sense of community, enable our campers to make new friends and take home memories that will last a lifetime.

We welcome campers incoming 2nd grade to 10th to participate in our full day from 9am to 4:30pm, Monday through Friday. While our special Cub Camp is reserved for our incoming Kindergarteners and 1st grader campers and runs from 9am to 3pm. Extended Camp options are available.

Traditional Camp Activities

We feature traditional camp activities such as archery, arts & crafts, swimming, outdoor survival, music, mountain biking and more. With our “free choice” format, campers are able to create their own program and pick the activities that they would like to try.

Each Wednesday during the afternoon activity sessions, we offer a variety of new activities to mix things up and allow our campers to try something new such as rock wall climbing, giant slip n’ slide, spa or water rockets.

Meals / Food Service

Lunch and a healthy snack are included and all of our nutritious meals are prepared by Woodside Priory School’s year round chef and professional food service team. Lunch consists of hot meal options such as ravioli with cream sauce, chicken ciabatta, roast beef, lasagna, and fajitas.

In addition, each meal is served alongside a salad, sandwich, pasta and baked potato bar. There are plenty of choices for vegetarians and we are able to accommodate some dietary restrictions.
