SUMMER DAY CAMP 2020

At The Salvation Army Summer Camp your kids spend their days learning, playing, swimming, creating, exploring, making new friends and laughing. And parents spend their days knowing their kids are safe and cared for by our trained staff in our state-licensed camp.

Plus, they''ll have a new experience each week! Choose from many theme camps based on topics like sports, art, games, STEM, culture and history. We make combating summer learning loss FUN!

Campers get to swim in the Kroc pool, play in our gym, and run off their energy by playing games in the huge Kroc backyard. Sign up for our specialty camps for field trips and special learning opportunities!

  • Fun, creative activities all day to keep children active & busy.
  • I never worried about my kids in camp... I knew they were cared for in a loving environment.
  • This is the best time. They have different theme, classes & you get to do a lot of stuff. It's fun.

  • She loves being a part of a group, making friends
  • Meet new people, nice and friendly staff (we just move to the area)

  • She has gotten more outgoing, not so shy, and is able to talk to kids her age.
  • I think she improved socially & her confidence in water has increased.
