CAMP CANTEEN campers should be entering 6th, 7th or 8th Grade in Fall 2026. Camp Canteen is the perfect active day camp for kids entering 6th-8th grade! Our experienced, enthusiastic and highly trained staff lead your child through a safe and engaging summer. We have small groups, low camper to staff ratios and great indoor and outdoor spaces for well-planned activities. Canteen campers will swim at our outdoor pools twice a week and attend two field trips each week. Before and after camp care is also available for those who need an extended day. All campers should bring a sack lunch, water bottle, towel, and sunscreen every day. There is no camp on July 3. Drop off in the morning is between 8:45-9:15 A.M. and pick-up in the afternoon is between 2:45-3:15 P.M. A $100 deposit per child per week will be charged at time of registration. The remaining balance will be put on a payment plan. WITHDRAWAL/REFUND POLICY: In the event you need to cancel a camp, please do so immediately.
