The St. Paul's Summer Camp experience is sure to meet and exceed the expectations of both parents and children. Campers' self-esteem flourishes as they feel the bond of being a respected member of this incredible camp community. Campers' experiences will vary depending on their age and readiness. Whether a camper is enrolled in our Day Camp, ages 3 1/2 - 10 , or has chosen a specialty camp through our Sports and Specialty Camp program, ages 7-14, spending time at St. Paul's will create a summer of fun and a lifetime of memories.
The Day Camp places campers in small, age appropriate, self-contained groups lead by adult group leaders. The group leaders, assisted by our specially-trained counselors, create a bonding experience like no other day camp. Campers are exposed to a wide variety of activities such as swimming, arts, sports, music, special events, and more. Social skills and self esteem increase as campers interact in a safe and nurturing environment. Whether in our air-conditioning indoor activity centers or on the expansive playground or playing fields, campers in the Day Camp benefit from the variety of experiences.
For those campers who have already developed a passion for a particular discipline, St. Paul's Summer Camp offers Sports and Specialty Camps which allow campers ages 7-14 to enroll in camps designed with a specific activity in mind. The "Sports and Specialty " camps are run by expert instructors and take place during three hour blocks either in the morning or afternoon. Whether in Harry Potter, Drawing and Painting for Beginners, Dance, Soccer, Ropes Course or Remote Control Cars-to name a few- campers spend a significant amount of time with adults, counselors, and fellow campers who have similar interests. This environment creates an enriching environment that fosters growth and camaraderie.
