Camp Rocky Creek Day Camps

Adventure Day Camp
Open to campers 6-13 years of age

Camp Rocky Creek offers a great way for your child to spend their summer in a safe, unplugged and fun outdoor environment. Whether this is your camper’s first time testing the waters or day camp is their home away from home, Camp Rocky Creek is here to welcome them. Day camp is the foundation for longer camping experiences and is the perfect way to encourage your camper to find confidence in the outdoors.

Our day campers will be grouped together by age at the start of the camp week and will participate in some activities, like pool & lunch, with their assigned group. Campers will have the chance to sign up for their favorite activities, led by our camp activity specialist, including outdoor living skills, arts & crafts, challenge course, target sports and more! Each week will have a different theme so campers can attend all summer and find something different each week!

Day Camp is offered Monday-Friday. Lunch & Snack are included.

*Campers must have completed Kindergarten.
