The camp will feature a variety of age-appropriate indoor and outdoor activities as well as special theme days such as water day, super hero day and wacky Wednesday. Field trips to Clark Reservation State Park, Green Lakes State Park, Jamesville Beach and the New York State Fair are also planned.
All campers should bring seasonally appropriate clothing for outdoor activities including sneakers, swimsuit and towel, hat and sun block. Full-day campers are asked to bring a non-meat lunch. An afternoon snack will be provided.
