General Camp Information & Details

“A” Camp is Campus Recreation’s traditional day camp for campers ages 5-11 and Counselors-In-Training (CIT) ages 12-14. A typical day at camp consists of playing active groups games, creating arts & crafts, participating in engaging cooperative games and swimming in our olympic-sized pool. 

Voyager programs are optional add-on opportunities like morning swim lessons and offsite field trips. They tend to fill fast and space is limited.

Structured camp hours are from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m., however, we provide drop-off as early as 7:30 a.m. and pick-up as late as 5:30 p.m. at no additional cost.

Take advantage of a 10% sibling discount automatically applied when additional campers are registered. Deposits of $50 per camp week per camper accepted to reserve spot (swim lessons and field trips must be paid in full at the time of registration). Lastly, the full amount is due the Friday before the start of each camp week.

Counselor-In-Training Camp

Counselor-in-Training (CIT) Camp is a special leadership program for youth between the ages of 12 - 14. CIT’s will have specific time throughout the camp week for community service projects, on-campus field trips and mentoring opportunities. CIT’s participate in camp games with the staff and younger campers. Sibling discount counts towards both “A” Camp and CIT camp.
