Each week is themed differently with games, crafts and activities, workshops, and field trips that all ages will enjoy. Groups are broken up based on age (ages 3-5, ages 6-8, ages 9-12) for appropriate activities. For the weekly themes see the reverse side of this sheet. Workshops, crafts and other daily activities are all based around these themes and will vary in each group to fit the needs of each age group.
Mondays– Welcome and Camp Challenges
Mondays are welcome days where we take the time to participate in team building. Our campers will join their groups in camp challenges designed to bring their group together and get to know each other.
Tuesday– Entertainers and Workshops*
Each week we will have an entertainer or workshop visit us at camp!! Some weeks it might be a storyteller, STEM activity, fun inflatable, or even our own Bolton first responders!
Wednesday– Spirit Days
Wednesdays at camp are Spirit Days where the entire camp dresses up to theme! Whether it is Crazy Hair Day, Color Day, or Opposite Day, our groups will dress to impress!
Thursday– Field Trip Days!*
There will be four special trips– Parkade Cinemas for a movie, The Dinosaur Place at Nature’s Art village, Nomads and Revolutions Bowling, and Quassy Amusement Park. Transportation to and from and a full day of fun will be provided on these days! Field trips are for all campers, and there will be age appropriate activities planned for our younger campers.
During the rest of the weeks our summer camp will go to Indian Notch Park here in Bolton. The day will be spent with our own section of the beach area, lunch at the pavilion, as well as our very own lifeguard in addition to regularly staffed guards.
Friday– Color Wars
Fridays will be a time for our campers and counselors to come together for some competition and fun!! Each group will dress in their colors and participate in group activities and challenges, games and more!
*Some workshops and field trips may be on different days due to scheduling or Holidays!
