Adventure Day Camp

Enrolling for Summer 2025

Please read below about our new changes for 2025! Enrollment will start on February 1 and continue until filled. Please submit the form below to be entered in the enrollment lottery. 

Spend the day outdoors learning and exploring on the shores of Payette Lake. Throughout the summer, kiddos explore the outdoors, play games, make crafts, hike, swim, and make new friendships. Students will use their five senses and tools to learn more about the world around them. Topics will complement the nature play and summertime adventures that kiddos love while practicing social and emotional skills.

This summer, we will revisit the overarching theme of Making Connections! We have so much more to explore. Every day we will try to incorporate; a game, song, art activity, book, adventure in the park, free play, science activity, and swimming* when it’s warm enough, usually around the first week in July. Some example theme weeks are teamwork, plant and animal relationships and where our water comes and goes. There will be an emphasis on social and emotional learning so that kiddos can work on their interpersonal relationship skills with each other and this place.
