Dream Big Day Camp
At Dream BIG Day Camps, we run our camps with an emotional intelligence of teaching life through camp. We don’t throw out a bunch of balls and say, “GO.” There is a process; a beginning, a middle and an end. There are take-a-ways and instructional moments in activities. We stress winning graciously, losing with dignity, accepting differences and managing projects that push comfort zones.
Campers improve skill development, enjoy 20+ activities from basketball to STEM to dance and make meaningful connections. If children don’t leave our program feeling 14 ft. tall then we aren’t doing something right.
Steve & Kate’s Camp
Since 1980, Steve & Kate’s has put kids in charge of their own learning experience. Campers choose from a variety of activities in real-time, including sewing, coding, film, sports, and more! As kids try, fail, and learn on their own, they learn to trust their own judgment, and tackle the challenges of an ever changing world with creativity and confidence.
Families can buy any number of days, to use at any time–no weekly reservations required. Or, buy a Summer Pass, which covers the whole season. If your plans change, we’ll automatically refund any unused days at summer’s end. Lunch, snacks & 8am–6pm included.
