Hawklings: Hawklings Adventures Camp is a coeducational summer program designed especially for our youngest campers in preschool and pre-kindergarten (ages 3–4). Through a balance of play, exploration, and creativity, Hawklings invites children to imagine, discover, and grow in a safe and joyful environment. Our carefully designed, developmentally appropriate activities nurture curiosity, physical activity, and social-emotional growth while fostering a sense of community.

 

Girls Day Camp: Girls Day Camp is designed to inspire creativity, confidence, and friendship in a supportive, fun-filled environment.

Boys Day Camp: Boys Day Camp is designed for campers who want to pack their summers with energy, variety, and adventure.

Girls Lifetime Adventure Camp: The Girls Lifetime Adventure Camp goes beyond the scope of the day camp program, providing activities and experiences that are enjoyable and tailored to this age group. We aim to empower campers in developmentally appropriate ways by providing them with daily choices based on their interests in both the mornings and the afternoons. These choices will extend into our new Intramural Challenge, where campers will earn points in traditional and non-traditional sports, performance arts, cooking competitions, scavenger hunts, dance, and more. Campers will enjoy opportunities to connect with friends, old and new; tackle new challenges; hone their leadership skills; discover new interests; and develop a clear, confident sense of leadership.
