Camp Descriptions:


Entering Preschool-Kindergarten

Session 1: Fairytales-Knights and Princesses (July 26 - July 30)

Once upon a time……there was a summer camp where fairytales came to life with pony rides and bouncy castles and knights, princesses, and wizards played all day while learning French.  They listened to stories, created beautiful artwork, learned midieval games and mystical magic.


Session 2: Pirate Voyage (Aug. 2 – Aug. 6)

Ahoy mates. Get ready for a swashbuckling time as we set sail on our pirate adventure. We will visit far off lands and go on treasure hunts, meet live pirates, and creatures of the oceans. There will be lots of singing, dance, stories, art, and adventure to be had by all.

Get ready for an amazing week of challenges testing your mind, body, and teamwork abilities during our EB reality show competitions! Each day campers will create and participate in our own versions of these popular shows: Amazing Race, Top Chef, Survivor, and Project Runway.


Session 2:  Inventors Workshop

Lets create together. During this inspiring week we will be learning all about the process of inventing, designing, and building our own creations. We will build our own ships and/or vehicles, musical instruments, buildings and structures. Campers will visit Urban Ore to find reusable materials and will use additional items like Legos, K’nex, and other creative building materials to create their masterpieces.
