For our youngest campers entering kindergarten and first grade, we offer an array of activities and experiences that are inviting and age-appropriate. The Pioneers group is a structured program designed to ease campers into building new friendships and becoming more independent. Camper’s days are fun filled! Campers take American Red Cross swim lessons 4 days per week and enjoy supervised free swim in the afternoons. They explore the world around them by doing hands-on experiments in STEM and they discover their creativity in Arts & Crafts and Music & Drama. Sports & Games, Cooperative Games, Epic Adventures and Gymnastics all provide different challenges and fun ways to learn to support each other. In order to balance all of the high-energy activities, campers will also have quality time to do quiet activities, which provide a break from the fast-paced day.
Pioneers have weekly field trips on Fridays to some of the area’s best attractions. Field trips provide our campers, especially incoming kindergarteners, time to get accustomed to bus rules and routines in a smaller, adult-supported environment.
