Winter Break Day Camp is our annual winter session that occurs during February winter break. It provides a fantastic opportunity to escape the winter blues and reconnect with your favorite camp staff and friends. Campers engage in some exciting outdoor activities like (weather permitting) snow-tubing, snow sculpting competitions, and snow golf, as well as awesome gym games and indoor campfires!

Winter Break Day Camp is going to be more than just a giant snowball fight.
