Week 2: Let’s Get Messy, June 8-12
Get ready for a wacky week of icky, sticky, silly stuff created by you! This isn’t for the light-hearted; it goes way past a school science project! Come dressed to get dirty. We will make items such as gack, goop, glop and gump (and any other gooey words that we can think of)!
Week 3: Mystery, Maps & Riddles, June 15-19
Become a detective and unveil the mystery at our camp. Participate in scavenger hunts and figure out the hidden codes to unlock the riddles. Every day is a mystery, and anything can happen!
Week 4: Wildly Creative, June 22-26
Look closely and see the beauty that is all around us! Using nature as our tools, anything is possible with imagination. We'll get creative this week with projects such as leaf rubbing art, kindness rocks, and pinecone crafts.

Week 8: The Y-lympics, July 20-24
Each group will have a country and compete in Y-lympic events. Team unity and participation is essential. Some events will involve skill and energy and others will involve problem-solving. On Friday's closing ceremony one country will take the gold!
Week 9: Mad Scientist, July 27-31
Put on your lab coats as we test different scientific theories and myths. Dive into a world of interactive science where day camp is your own laboratory. We’ll have all kinds of science activities, like chemistry experiments, myth-busting, and science facts vs. fiction.

It’s time to get soaked! Splish and splash through an awesome, fun-filled week. Summer is hot, but you’ll stay cool with activities like water sponge games, water relays, slip ‘n slides and more!
