At Baroody Camps, we create camps and programs that are designed to enrich the lives of children. During our summer camps, activities encourage a love of learning, creativity, curiosity, development of skills, character building, and fun. We’ll spend each day engaged in a variety of programs that will foster children’s development and curiosity in a fun challenging and structured environment. All activities are held on-site in a familiar setting, at a convenient location, and with lots of fun planned!

Campers will have the option of choosing what activities they would like to participate in throughout the day. Activities can vary day to day but options may include - coding, robotics, building, PE games, art, science, drama and fun with food).
